They barlow really well too in the shorty-plus, better than any other EP I tried. (Only 4 elements per EP which will help with the glassophobia too.)
And they are a bargain at around $125 new. (Or you could buy a 13mm Nagler T6, and I know someone who will swap you a set of four HDs for it.  But it won't be me!)

Hmmm, there is just one more question to ask - where do you get UO eyepieces in Australia?
