That is essentially BS gimickry.

I think this product is specifically for people with vision issues such as astigmatism or bifocal wearing shooters. The added "Mirage" wordage is maybe suppose to hook some additional perspective buyers. That part IS BS. I did a review search of this product and it was independently reviewed and indicated was for specific eye problems and possibly clears the cross hairs for shooters. This was my understanding of this product. Maybe it works for that purpose.

Seems to me it kinda like the Scope "Multipliers" you can buy that are suppose to make your target appear larger. I bought a few and frankly was disappointed as they tend to distort a larger target rather than make it larger while maintaining clarity. Some guys like them and they say work for them, while others think they are BS and a waste of money. I believe you are much better off buying a good, more pwoerful scope with better clarity. I find that to be the case when I compare some of my "quality" 36X scopes to a "good deal" 36X scope that'll get you close. But then "close" also only applies in horseshoes and hand grenades.

Total BS on what their websote says about filtering light for mirage, mirage affects all wavelengths of light of interest.

I have one of these on one of my scopes - works great. Everyone who has looked thru it says it's very clear and sharp:

of course YMMV.....

I bought a Bullseye from Gene Davis wen they came out about 10 years ago. Tried it on 36 power Weaver and Leupold scopes. What I found was that past 200 yards, the image was too blurred to see scoring rings. A friend of mine at the range looked thru the Bullseye also and had the same impression. I returned it for a full refund.

I noticed that when I use the Bulzeyepro, I have to change the focus. Originally, I got a #x and could not get the recticle/target focused. I returned it and got a different PowerX and now I'm able to focus - and the targets are big and sharp at 200/300 yards (all the way out to 600).

I must have not followed the instructions quite right when I read it the first go around.

Again, YMMV.
