Barry,
I don't know if they're still available, but Olympus used to sell eyecups that
allowed you to screw in various diopters to correct
vision problems just like you want. You just needed to know diopter and order
from OM dealer.
I may have one of those little "eyecouplers" I believe they were called. But
you'd still need to get hold of correct diopter insert.

What would be ideal would be an eyecup/optical device that would
allow the same full screen+meter viewing as you can have sans
glasses. While such an adaptor would be bulky, it'd be preferable to
doing the "owl move" or having to take my glasses off to shoot.
