Ahh found it in the advert:

“ Well-corrected ultra-wide 86° field with sharp star images across the field even with fast f/3 Newtonian optic ”

If your telescope had a Paracorr coma corrector, it would take a 23mm eyepiece in the Paracorr to equal a 20mm eyepiece that doesn't need a coma corrector.
Or, another way to look at it is that a 20mm coma-corrected eyepiece would have the same magnification in the telescope as a 23mm eyepiece in the Paracorr.
