Does anyone use any special glasses for viewing red laser beam from Leca Disto or other distance laser meter in outdoor places?

We got some when we bought a couple of distos

They don't help much at all, and so never really get used.

Both distos I have have a view finder. The Disto Classic 5 a I have which is over 12 years old has one and the newer D510 I have has one on the screen.

I've never needed glasses to see the red dot. I have never seen the beam 😉

This is a new one for me. Usually people want glasses to protect the eyes from the Laser beam.

I did a search on the internet "Laser Enhancement Glasses" and many hits came up. I only looked at one from Granger and it said
"Enhances Visibility of Laser beams"

Let us know how this works out for you--I would be interested to know.

I have some laser glasses, and they do help. But they're a nuisance to put on and take off, so I don't use them much.

Can you make me an offer?

Go to your nearest home improvement store and buy a pair. I think I paid $10 or $15 for mine.
