This is the only Tele Vue product I own so far. I bought it used. Though I wear glasses, I don't normally wear them for viewing. This eyepiece's high power (at 4mm) and resultant small exit pupil make my astigmatism unnoticable. I have had great views of Mars with this eyepiece, also the Ring Nebula. At 4mm it is often too powerful for atmospheric conditions, 8mm or 10mm Radians might be useful more often for most viewers (this is my highest power eyepiece). Objects are in sharp focus across the wide field of view. Great clarity and a bit of "warm" coloration, a heavy eyepiece. Eye cup does a great job of blocking stray light, "instajust" on eye cup needed to prevent minor "kidneybeaning", it's easy to use and works well. All-in-all a great eyepiece.
