Matt,
    I have unusually lousy vision, but with my corrective lenses I can
indeed split the wide pairs in Epsilon Lyrae.  Without my glasses I don't
think I could see the star at all.

Clear skies,  Sue

>Finally, I took a stab at Epsilon Lyrae, the famous "double-double".  The
two main stars can easily be split in 7x35s, in fact at 208 arc seconds of
separation I'd suspect you could almost split these without aid if you had
unusually good vision
