Looking for info on if the Zeiss Dialyt has enough eye relief for comfortable viewing with eyeglasses.  Of course it has an eyecup to turn down, according to Zeiss....but no one at Zeiss can give me an eye relief spec in mm.  Has anyone with glasses used this scope, and if so, how does the eye relief compare with other spotters?.  I am used to the Leupold 12-40, which has great eye relief. 


As an eyeglass wearer, I find that inadequate eye relief is the biggest problem I face in spotters and binoculars, using them with glasses on which I must do.  Thank you.

It has very short eye relief. I think eyeglass wearers would do well to look at a different spotter.

Thanks much. The Samplelist has a great deal on one, but I best look for something different when I buy.
