I am wondering if field glasses are made really strong so that I can use them without my glasses and they will correct my vision. Does that make sense? I can't use the ones we have now since I wear glasses. I'm trying to see a bird on our feeder six feet away from the window and I just can't. Probably doesn't help that the windows are dirty.
We are just getting started on nature study and my goal for this spring is to identify six birds.
Thanks!
Jennifer

Oh. Is that why I can't see the birds right out my window?? I'm supposed to clean them??

Not sure of what to recommend- but wanted to let you know that your post gave me a much-needed chuckle.

Many binoculars have adjustable occulars (eyepieces) to compensate for vision. Check them out in the store before you buy them.
