I'm interested in the Trijicon MRO too due to reading reviews that the dot is better for people with a slight astigmatism such as myself.
My only pause is I'm concerned it wont be as durable as an aimpoint.

I can confirm that is the case for me. I had to wear glasses as a kid due to astigmatism, and as an adult every red dot or holographic sight I've used has been slightly to moderately flared, or has the starburst effect.
Not so with the MRO. When out shooting, the dot looks nice and crisp, with no flare or starburst at all. I currently own two MROs and will continue to purchase more if I need another red dot sight. It is literally the only one I have ever looked through that looks sharp and crisp to my eyes.
I can't make any claims as to how durable the MRO is. I don't torture test or abuse my stuff. I just take it out to the range, and put it back in the safe. The sight appears to be built very solidly, and I have no question that Trijicon will take care of you if you have issues with your MRO. Their customer service is excellent based on my dealings with them.
