..I own a Discovery 10" f5.6 dob

I recieved 2 eye-pieces/10mm & 25mm with it.

the 10mm eye-piece does not seem to be very clear for lunar viewing. It seems blurry.

The 25mm is good, with full view of the Moon, and Jupiter(4 moons) is also pretty clear.

is there a possibility there may be a flaw in the 10mm eye-piece? or is 10mm pushing the optics too far for clearity.

Saturn also appears somewhat blurry in the 10mm.
