Glasses and EVFs, and my nose touching the screen.

I'm sure many of you have experienced these little "challenges".

If I remove my glasses then the world is a bit blurred and it's on-off, on-off. The style of my glasses makes it hard to see the full EVF so I have to try and look at it over the rim of the glasses, and then my nose moves the focus point on the screen. All good fun ! Anyway I've disabled the touch screen, seemed the simplest option.
 
There is a setting for the touch screen af point that makes it harder to move with your nose. I believe its called offset and the easier to move setting is exact.

Thanks Rich, I was actually looking for that when I realised I could disable the screen. I don't really use the touch screen so it's not a great loss.
 
Touch screen off is the first thing I do when I set up a a camera that has it.
 
with some cameras you can also get a extended eyepiece
 
Why I like rangefinder bodies, big hooter friendly!
That's alright if you're right-eye dominant. If you're left-eye dominant, your nose will always be touching the back of the camera.
I don't have an issue with my nose activating the touch screen on my Canon RP, the screen automatically deactivates (with the exception of a small area top right for focus point selection) when I put my eye to the EVF.
