Why are CraftOptics binocular telescopes better than just my prescription or reading glasses?

Our telescopes are designed to work WITH your reading prescription, allowing you to see more detail at higher levels of magnification than when you use your reading prescription alone. If you try using a stronger reading prescription only, the focal length, or working distance, will be short and you will end up bending over while you work, putting strain on your neck and back due to poor posture. Our patent pending optical designs allow you to see high resolution images from a comfortable working distance.
