OK thank you... I’ll buy the 15mm BST Then the BST 5mm or 8mm? That leaves me around £150 for a lower powered wide FOV eye piece. Which one?

The Sky-Watcher 200p comes with 10mm and 25mm eyepieces. On a budget of around £250 what should I be looking at that is available somewhere? After a few nights of reading forums, the Baader Hyperion Zoom Eyepiece 8-24mm has been shortlisted but that would be it, as far as budget went. I’m not keen on how much lower the FOV gets at the lower powers with this eyepiece though. I could add a second eye piece at a later date when I get the free cash to cover the lower power and make do for now. On the other hand I’m considering a 5mm or 8mm along with a 12mm or 15mm BST Starguider then adding a third eyepiece of a yet unknown brand with lower power (24+) and a wide FOV lense with the remaining budget. My considerations are eye relief, while I don’t wear glasses and while not a deciding factor, some people who occasionally use the scope do wear glasses. Any advice would be great, even if it’s offering up suggestions that I haven’t put forward.
