If you have astigmatism in your eyeglass R/X, the only sensible way to use a telescope without your eyeglasses - even the "long eye relief ones." But make sure the Dioptrx fits your particular eyepiece (about half of the high-end TeleVues - some with special adapters).
While your telescope's focuser adjusts for near- or far-sightedness, the DIOPTRX Astigmatism Correcting Lens - 1.50 is designed to compensate for astigmatism, enhancing your visual experience.
