Using a red dot does it matter which eye you use to view it

? The reason I ask is I have a red dot scope I could put on the MKII but using my dominant eye, which is near sighted causes the dot to flare. My left non-dominant eye has had cataract surgery and got the long distance lens which is fine. I could wear glasses but I almost never do anymore. I find glasses to be a huge annoyance. I think I am ok using the left eye to sight through on a dot scope? Thanks for your comments

- No, it is parallax free, typically, at only 1.3X - WB, 2019-03-23, 08:57
- When using red dots or halographic, both eyes should be open (nm) - Kevin E, 2019-03-23, 08:41
