Any suggestions for an eye cup for D7200?

I'd like a larger eyecup to make it easier to see when I'm using the viewfinder. A couple of issues. I wear glasses, am left-eyed and use BBF. So I always have a back of my right thumb print on my right lens. I can live with that, but the thumb on the AE/AF Lock button does cause some separation between me and the camera. I'd like something soft that seals up against my left eyeglass lens. Any help is greatly appreciated!

Have you looked at Hoodman's? I put a Hoodman on my D7100, it is fairly large and fits me well.

BUT, I do not wear glasses when I shoot.

Thanks, Don! That looks like the exact ticket. I'll let you know how it works for me. Score another one for the Hog! I always learn something from your helpful responses and good cheer. Keep up the good work...

Got it today and looks like it's going to be a keeper! I can see much better, it's blocking a lot of the bright Texas sun...
