    I have a similar issue with some astigmatism, where i the dot is bright I see a starburst, if it's dimmer it's more dot like, but, in bright light, disappears.
    Who does a prismatic RDS for compact pistols?

    I have seen prismatic sights for rifles, and these are definitely a good option to consider.

    Is his type of sight available for EDC handguns?

    I was looking for a prismatic sight for handguns, but could not find anything.

    A-R, if you want to see the prismatic sight for yourself, gimme a PM and we can arrange a meeting. It's fitted to my AR15. It's a Vortex Spitfire.

    With current tech a pistol mounted prismatic would probably be excessively large. Remember you need to squeeze a few lenses/prisms into there.

    The extra weight of the lenses might also be problematic on a moving slide.
