Since TeleVue introduced their Plossls in 1980, they have won praise and patents, including a patent in Japan. TeleVue Plossls, designed by Al Nagler, have been a recognized benchmark of performance and value in the class of 50 degree apparent field of view telescope eyepieces. While the Plossls may be Tele Vue's least expensive telescope eyepiece line, they still enjoy the same care and attention to detail as their most expensive eyepieces. Tele Vue continues to believe that quality, performance and consistency will ultimately reward you with the most value for your dollar. Diffraction limited "on-axis" performance is a given. Using more expensive high-index glasses to reduce astigmatism and lateral color at the field's edge, Tele Vue Plossls deliver sharp images. The faster the focal ratio of your telescope, the greater your visual reward for using Tele Vue telescope eyepieces.

This 55mm Tele Vue Plossl Telescope Eyepiece features full multi-coatings for greatest light transmission and contrast. Blackened lens edges and internal anti-reflection threads tweak the last bit of contrast for maximum image detail. The sharper field focuses faint star light into perceptible points and allows those with undriven telescope mounts to gaze longer before repositioning the image.
