I've just seen this - I've not come across this idea before but could be useful to get that foresight in focus.

Interesting - I wonder how well they work and what optical clarity they can acheive.

The frames will be the limitation; for rifle shooting, I don't see them as an improvement over standard frames. Yes you can adjust the focal length, but the lens won't be centred over the eye, and perpendicular to your line of sight.
Would be usable for pistol as long as you did not have an astigmatism (but high pecentage of spectacle users do), almost useless for rifle, I can't even see them as usefull for ordinary glasses, as you have to alter for reading and long, I think just a gimic, go to a good optician and get a correct set of glasses and then get shooting glasses also to the correct focal length for shooting including your astigmatism, i.e long plus 0.5 diopter for rifle, and forsight focal length for pistol.
I have a source of good cheap rifle frames from the states at $50, pistol just get the correct focus from a pound shop.
Good shooting

Ooh! That sounds defeatist Tim. I was thinking more of the technology as food for thought or possibly hacking them, chopping them in half and mounting them on an adjustable arm on a headband or some such. Unfortunately they look to be about £70 at the moment (but then I remember when the cheapest LCD watch was £70.)
I've also seen adjustable spec that have two sheets of clear plastic with liquid in between - changing the liquid pressure varies the focal length.
