Problem with Aimpoint Micro T-2

your eyes...

I have astigmatism and the Aimpoint dot looks like the Nike swoosh logo for me. When I'm outside in bright sunlight, it doesn't look as bad.

I have never had an Aimpoint Micro with a clean dot and I have gone through more than a dozen. I have no issues with Trijicon MROs, RMRs, Eotechs, L3 MRDS or the Aimpoint PRO...just Micros for some reason. Unmagnified, the Micro dot is fine for my use but I think something about Micros don't allow for a perfect dot. In addition, other people see the same dot irregularities as me so the Aimpoint "astigmatism" explanation is moot.

I have bad eyes, but the T1s, T2s, and Pro all look good to me. The best being the T2 and Pro. I also have 3 MROs which are good except occasional reflections when there is bright light coming from behind me, or odd angles in front. I use glasses, but even when I take the glasses off the dot is still usable, albeit somewhat blury with out glasses.

The only sight I had problems with was EOTech with a slightly weird dot.

Simply look through your rear iron sight with your RDS on if its magically a crisp dot you have an astigmatism.

Are you sure you don't have a knockoff
