Glasses or not?

OK, after a few months of viewing (binoculars), I've decided I hate my eyes! I wear glasses, mostly for distance viewing, but my eyes have gone crazy of recent years - one has decided to focus close and one far!

I prefer to view without glasses, I just need the RHS diopter well to one end of its travel. I can view with my glasses, but then it doesn't feel right and my brain complains a little.

However, I need my glasses to look up at the sky and identify stars. Without them on, it's too much out of focus. So my glasses are coming on and off as I go from "naked-eye" to through the binoculars.

Has anyone got some tips on how they have approached this issue, or do I just have to put up with it? (and make sure I always have an accessible top shirt pocket to drop them in and not on the ground - CRUNCH!)

Thanks
Eric
