I've had one for about a year, over a hundred dives on it. I really like it. My prescription is 3.75 and it works great. It's easy to keep track of your buddy or location, my navigation is better, your peripheral vision takes care of it, you think about it less. Lots of fun in kelp, really pretty, water seems less sharky.
I do a lot of photography, a lot of close-up with a digital and there have been a few times, just a few, when it seems too strong. Just 2 or 3 times, maybe when I'm tired or something. But it's not exactly like just putting glasses on, it's more like having to focus close on a virtual image, so it's more flexible than glasses would be, it doesn't really work like a prescription. At least it doesn't feel like it.
