Gary D: 7:04am Jul 25, 2008: could you add more of the context please. It could be that he took a better view with open eyes and saw a bigger world than the one that he had tunnel vision in. Ie: he opened his eyes a little and saw the world surrounding him. Don't shout me down guys.
说明： He lifted his binoculars just a little bit..... and the rest of the sentence would remain the same. HTH.

1) He lifted his binoculars just a little bit and expanded his horizon(s) by one hundred metres.
2) He raised his binoculars a tiny bit and expanded his horizon(s) by one hundred metres.
Two alternate rewordings, just see what you think and good luck!!!!
