Shooters Eye Patches

How soon do you need it? You could just wait until Halloween and when a kid comes to your door dressed as a pirate offer him an extra kit kat for his eye patch.
 
Just tape over the offending side of your shooting glasses with electrical tape.

Or look at this link.

AirgunsPlus in Prince Albert, Sask. stocks the German clip on blinders.

I searched the site. What they have are the Gehmann (brand) clip-on eye iris (at $115) in stock.
The clip on eye shield is expensive (and out of stock) at 29.95.
If you're going to search search for the misspelled "sheild"

The no-space shootersbox dot com have these for about $9 (They seem to have only the White in stock. I use the dark opaque one myself.)

I might get the eye Iris.
I have seen "good" shooters using them.
I would use them discreetly (since I am not at the the level
where I could wear one in front of my fellow shooters and
not be self-conscious.)

Good luck. One of those shields will help.

A real eye patch, that would completely block the non-aiming eye, is not recommended if you're going to shoot for any length of time. The difference in light levels entering the eyes is tiring -- one eye is saying it's dark and to open the iris up and the other is saying it's light and to close it down. This is why proper shooting shields block/blur the vision without restricting light levels very much. And the non-stick Magic Tape (or regular Magic Tape if you're okay with leaving it in place) does indeed work very well in place of dedicated shooting glasses like the Vargas. It is nice that the shield flips up out of the way when you're not shooting, though.
