That 10mm is very difficult to use with glasses on, even with the rubber eyecup folded down I need to hold my glasses lense and squish it close to my eye to take in the full field of view. I find it more comfortable to get it close to focus and then take my glasses off and refocus a smidge.

I would suggest focusing on a distant tree (200m-300m away) with the 25mm and then switching to the 10mm and try to focus. I just tried it then and the point at which the 10mm focused when looking at the number of peaks or ridges of the helical focuser's "screw thread" was 4 visible (not including the half sized ridge closest to the "nut" moulding) and the 5th peak was present right at the lip of the focuser housing.

I'm sure it's been said, however, make sure that the sun is behind your back, preferably tucked away behind clouds or a tree or the wall of your house!
