Hard time focusing target!

I did my first post and got a great response from the community...and I thank you all for that. Now, here comes my first request for advice.

I am nearsighted (-1.5) and also with age comes presbyopia; I can focus clearly only on one of both, the intended target OR the peep on the string. Is there any lens or help or accessory that will help me focus clearly on both, the target and peep? Usually the prep and pins are blurry and target clearly focused...how do I correct this?

I don’t personally see much of difference in accuracy inside of 40 yds whether I target focus or pin focus. I tend to target focus outside of 40 and feel my “pin float” is less. The prevailing sentiment seems to be focus on the target at any distance and let the pin be fuzzy, most people seem to have better accuracy. Try both see which feels and yields better results for you.

That's normal, you can't focus on two things at different distances at the same time. I usually focus on the pins more than the target, like with iron sights. Curious if others do differently though.
