Probably would, I've seen some photos with dots that look too large. Then again, I used 1/4 dots on a four string and they looked fine (except for the one that was a tad off center - boy can the eye pick up the slightest errors!)
I put in a lot of thought before adding fret marker dots, everybody places them on the face of the fretboard in the time honoured tradition, why do this when the player can't see them if the guitar is held in the correct playing position?
My sight is slightly compromised, like everyone my age, and not really comfortable playing with glasses on. I eventually added 5mm dot markers on the edge of the neck where i could see them...clear enough to see without the specs...
