Unlike John I have never had an issue using my Ethos along with my glasses in terms of eye relief. That may be a factor of the shape of the lenses in my glasses or where I like to position them (I like to have them high on my nose which means the lense is close to my eye)
I have found that the images are noticeably sharper when I observe without glasses however. This has really only become apparent in my 20" with the Ethoi. In my old 12" I simply couldn't tell the difference so I usually just left the glasses on. I now have a "granny strap" so I can remove my glasses while at the eyepiece.
All this tells us that each of us is an individual and the things we do to get the best observing experience will vary.

I agree Malcolm, I have no problem, at all, using my Ethos and Delos with my glasses. But then, I do have to observe with my glasses as I have astigmatism, so maybe I just got used to using them. I did buy them with that in mind anyway. They are the best eyepieces for me
