Center fire shooting glasses?

I know that this forum is for air and smallbore, but I'm sure that some people also shoot centerfire arms as well.

I have an old Remington 1917 Enfield that I shoot in hi power matches at my club. I would like to start using my knobloch prescription shooting glasses while shooting it, as I can adjust the lens to where it needs to be. My concern is that such shooting glasses really won't do anything in the event of a cartridge rupture. Larger glasses aren't as adjustable, and I haven't been able to get my regular prescription glasses positioned correctly while in position.

What do you guys do for higher powered rifle shooting?

I actually use them for smallbore as well. I had my local optician grind the prescription lenses with the optical center offset so that it is in front of my eye when in prone.

Now that is a very neat idea.
