I don't really see eye to eye with these guys, pun intended. I shoot deer, hogs, and such with metallic sights frequently so don't agree they are for round bulls eyes only. I use a .25 diopter rear lens most often but I also have Decott high wide glasses that I use some times also with my distance vision prescription in the center and .25 diopter in the upper half of the right lens for use with metallic sights. To prevent fogging simply rub a tin layer of dish soap on the lens and then buff to a polish, fogging is a thing of the past.
I don't have anything against red dots or scopes, I use both but I can shoot more accurately with metallic sight than a red dot, and equal to a scope in most situations. The exception is deer in woods screened by brush, I want a scope then, but in open terrain I've taken multiple deer at greater than 300 yards with irons.
If you like them don't let someone talk you out of it.
