You should go to B&H or another Leica dealer while you are in NY and
try out different strength diopter correctors until you find the one
that makes things sharp for you.

If you don't want to pay the new Leica price look for one on eBay or
elsewhere, but do try them out.  They can make a world of
difference....just ask me how I know.

p.s.  Also make sure all of the viewfinder and rangefinder windows are
clean.  That can make a difference too.
