The Celestron X-Cel LX 18 mm is an eyepiece with a 60-degree apparent field of view and 16 mm eye relief, allowing you to see the entire image even with glasses. Six fully multi-coated lenses in four groups provide a clear and contrast-rich image. You can rotate the eyepiece to the distance that looks comfortable to you.
