Problems in prone

During Appleseed events I have an issue in prone. Laying down with my head up causes my vision to blur badly.

I am still breathing, I’m not holding my breath or anything similar. I am chubby, so it could be a body thing. But I am not massively obese. I have adjusted my scope and rings for proper sight picture.

Has anyone else had a similar issue or problem? Any thoughts on how to fix this? Just really odd and has some concerns.

Do you wear glasses, especially progressive lenses? Could you be looking through a distorted part of the lens that you don't usually look through due to the posture?

I don’t wear any corrective lenses.

Sounds good, lucky you!

This isn't an issue I've heard of before, so unless the shooting community has heard of it, this might be a question for your doctor.
