Now that I’m in my late fifties, I’ve found that my eyes aren’t what they were twenty years ago. I need prescription shooting glasses just to see the iron sights on my pistols.

For my defense gun, I’ve had Meprolight night sights installed, but it’s not always easy to align them without glasses.
I’ve been thinking about laser sights. The Crimson Trace laser sights (like the ones shown at http://www.gunshopfinder.com/crimson_trace_laser_grips.html ) seem like they’d be a good backup if I need to use my gun but don’t have my glasses on.
My concern is that I’ll come to depend upon a laser rather than the iron sights.
Has anyone used a laser sight consistently and, if so, how have you liked it? Have your shooting skills with iron sights been affected?
