# Blurry Dot

Turn your sight on to setting 7-8 and take a picture with either a camera or the camera on your phone? That will show you what the dot truly looks like without any distortion from our eyes. Most of the time when you see a blurry dot or starburst, it's from focusing on the dot and not the target. Our red dots are designed to be used with both eyes open while maintaining target focus (essentially looking through the dot). If you do that the dot should appear round.
