SSP EYEWEAR – STAY FOCUSED AND IMPROVE YOUR SHOOTING
SSP Eyewear is passionate about protecting your eyes because you use them every day. With the introduction of Lasik Surgery, correcting nearsightedness (unable to see far away) has become very popular. The downfall is that you tend to lose your ability to see up close while reading. Also, your left and right eyes can deteriorate at different rates. This result is your
eye changing, and you lose the ability to see up close with your dominant eye. With the use of the Top Focal® glasses, you will be able to improve the sight of your dominant eye.You can also set up both the Top Focal® and the Denial (bottom bifocal) glasses with different powers for each eye. Additional lenses are available.
Long Gun Use
- The Top Focal® shooting glasses are commonly used in conjunction with an AR since the sights are the same distance from the eyes as a handgun.
- For scope use, adjust the reticle eyepiece to view the crosshairs clearly either through the Top Focal® or through the bottom of the lens, whichever is your preference. Look through the Top Focal® to adjust the turrets on the scope.
- Iron sights can be tricky since the distance is longer between sights. There is not a lot of information on this, but generally the rear sights are difficult to see since they are so close. If you have any information on this, feel free to share with us.
- Red Dot uses the same Top Focal® power as you would for pistol shooting.
Misinformation
Using a low power magnification, for example, +0.5-0.75, will allow you to view your target better.Using too low a magnification will provide a slightly better sight view but slightly worse target view, thus a compromise.
Don't compromise, use the correct Top Focal® glasses to see your sights crystal clear and use an SSP Eyewear Plano lens (Chelan Lens) in your non-dominant eye to see your target just as clear.
Common Questions
SSP Eyewear has done everything possible to find a frame style that accommodates face shape. In the future, we will introduce new styles to fit XL, and XS faces as well as large and petite nose bridges.- Can you make the Top Focal® Magnifier larger?
- At this time, it is as large as ANSI (American National Standards Institute) will allow for two reasons:
- It should not obstruct your distance view (height)
- The curvature of the lens would distort the magnifier (width)
- The Magnifier sits too low on my face, the line is in my view.
A2. If you have a small nose bridge, you may purchase stick-on felt or silicone nose pads from a drug store and apply to the stock nose pads to let the glasses ride higher on the nose bridge.
- The magnifier sits too high on my nose, and I cannot lower my head enough to see through the magnifier.
A2. Unfortunately, the glasses will not fit very large nose bridges, causing the glasses to ride high. Call our office to make arrangements to return for a full refund. SSP is working on a solution.

I’m not seeing this application for shotgun clay sports like skeet left eye dominance where I would need to soften my left I at distance with magnification maybe and low magnification on my left or none so that I encourage my right I to be dominate at distance.
What do you think?
Thank you
