From what I've read about vision, dark adaptation is irrelevant to acuity. Dark adaptation increases the sensitivity of the rod cells, which dominate the retinal region away from the center, ie, averted vision. The central region, or fovea, is populated densely with cone cells which provide sharp vision.
Ed, I never realized that wine was that important. This is great news. I sometimes celebrate a difficult split with a toast to myself, and another to my binocular (sometimes separate toasts to the individual telescopes, the coatings, prisms, etc.), but maybe I should try a good slug before I go out!
