Glossary | Telescope accessories | General | Type of build | ED eyepiece
Eyepieces with an ED element, as seen in apochromatic binoculars.
ED eyepieces have a very low colour variation and therefore offer good contrast.
The integrated ED elements have very low dispersion. Usually, these eyepieces also offer large eye relief for a comfortable viewing position, and are also suitable for spectacle wearers.
