Can anyone tell me where to find clear plastic spots to put on my glass lense to prevent my "off" eye focusing on a target?

Thanks for you help.

Just use a small square of scotch tape. Works as well as anything and the price is right.

Concur in that - and you can get it anywhere.

The other option I haven't seen used may be to dark tint one lense. As I understand it, the eye that has the best vision will be dominant. If light is cut by a large amount, it should fool your brain into making the opposite eye dominant.

I think it would be worth trying, as the benefit may be better field of view.

It should be simple to stop by an auto window tint shop and ask for some small pieces of tint film. You'd want to cover the entire lense, I would think.

I bet that gets greasy when it's hot...

I'm left handed right eye dominate and hard headed...I finally started using a dot kit by Decot and my shooting greatly improved.

I've also heard that you could take an erasable felt pen and draw lines about a quarter inch apart vertically and horizontally on the dominate eye lens and that will confuse your eye but not restrict your vision too much....I haven't personally tried it.

I make mine from clear oil change stickers that have no adhesive.
use 600 grit to make opaque and then cut them with a sharpened piece of tubeing. I may have to much time on my hands!
