Advice needing on centerline landings w/ a vision issues

Since you have the PMDG, you have access to a properly collimated HGS.  I'd recommend trying that out.  You'll have a flight path vector that will make maintaining centerline purely mechanical; keep the flight path vector on the centerline, and that's where the plane is going, regardless of crosswind or anything else.  I recommend using IMC mode for some decluttering, or even VMC if you're not interested in flight guidance but just want to put a flight path symbol on the runway.

After you do a few of these and it gets comfortable, if you want to improve your ability to do it visually without a HUD, start putting the HUD in manual brightness and turning it dimmer.  Dimmer and dimmer, until the HUD image is just the faintest ghost of symbols, barely visible.  That should force you to rely progressively more on your non-HUD sight picture cues 

I completely forgot about that. Thank you so much.
