As one who has always been very long sighted and with astigmatism, and worn specs for 53 years...
1. Casstony you have astigmatism, the OP does not.
2. OP, someone who is longsighted does not need specs at the telescope - merely racking the eyepiece out a tad will compensate for long sight (or in if you are short sighted).
If you're seeing stars as crosses you have astigmatism.
In my case I prefer to look through the scope without the specs - I can tolerate the astigmatism most of the time.
The real snag is the lack of ability to focus on an iphone, iPad or map up close - constantly putting specs on/off is a real pain.
