Help me my celestron 20mm erecting eyepiece from my power seeker 127eq is blurry but it is completely clean. When I look in it up close it is blurry, but when I look in to it from afar it is clear. Please contact me at <private contact details removed>  or I can send photos of what the eye pieces look like.

Never mind the whole thing I found out I was being silly and didn’t focus it all the way user error

I have a Celestron "PowerSeeker" 127EQ.  It also came with a 20mm erecting eyepiece, and both just like your own...

This is the order of the lenses...

At the bottom of the eyepiece, there resides the Amici erect-image prism...

Oh, don't set that 4mm(250x) aside, or throw it away.  I snapped this shot of the Moon through it and the 127mm telescope...

The live view was much sharper than that, and riveting!

Thanks I will uses this in the future for when this problem comes again I was looking frantically for a diagram like that one

Well <tweaks dastardly moustache>, Celestron had treated the subject...

I don't like my own.  The view is too narrow for a 20mm, although you do get an erect, corrected image with the telescope.  Otherwise, it's hard as dried beans to find an alternative; shame, that.

For the amount it must cost to throw in that 20mm erecting eyepiece, you'd think they could throw in a decent Plossl or two instead.
