Must try one of these magnifiers...
Luckliy, the dioptre adjustment on my K200D is still sufficient to cope with my longsighted eyes, even without glasses.

I fitted one last night and adjusted the dioptre slider as stated by JR (also mentioned in the handbook).
Setting the dioptre the correct way has made a difference to its setting
Overall I am impressed.
I can see everything in the viewfinder and it is more comfortable than the standard fitting.
Projecting further out from the body, your nose is kept further away from the LCD screen.
Also it is far easier to adjust the dioptre slider.
p.s. I used to have perfect eyesight but I am becoming more longsighted.
