My eyesight isn't getting any better either. It's getting harder and harder to shoot my preferred open sights and peep sights. That said, eyesight is actually kind of over-rated when it comes to shooting well. Even if what you see is blurry, if it's consistently blurry, you can still shoot quite well.

I struggle with any kind of an optic on a handgun. I've tried them all at one time or another. If you have friends who shoot them, or a local range with rentals that can provide them, I would strongly suggest you "try before you buy". The whole dynamic changes. Field of view through scopes is quite small, or through any "tube" type of optic. The "holographic" ones are really weird, in that they completely remove any sort of "instinctive" component to the shooting. I really, really struggle to even find the dot in many of them. Maybe with practice it gets better...
