That’s the mark of a cheap binocular. If you ever try a quality optic, you’ll never want to put them down. Of course, if the purse strings are tight, you have to go with what the pocketbook dictates. There are options but only you can “see” what’s right for you. If you ever watch videos where people depend on their optics like expensive safaris or glassing for game high in the mountains you will likely see only a few of the names like Swarovski, Zeiss, Leica, etc.
Looking through optics for hours at a time with an inferior glass will take its toll.
You get what you pay for with optics...
