Question lens advice needed !!

Hello All

I just bought a Skywatcher 8" Dob today - and few hours back was on my terrace watching Saturn - it was in its majestic charm. I loved the view using a 25mm lens with Barlow 2X, although the 10mm lens that came with the scope was fine as well!

Question 1 - I think I need better lenses for sure, but not sure which ones to buy. 1st question is are there any specific lenses that fit this scope or any lens from any manufacturer will be fine?

Question 2 - What lenses are recommended and if I can find any boxed sets.

The xcope came along with a 2" adapter - can anyone tell me what for is this adapter and which lenses I should be looking for uisng this adapter!

Thx
Ramana
