illuminated reticle guiding eyepiece

I'm a newbie in astrophotography and am looking for equipment to get set up. I have purchased a Lumicon Giant Easy Guider to use with my Meade 10" SCT, but I can't find any reviews of illuminated reticle guiding eyepieces. It seems like there would be an advantages to having the reticle adjustable on the X-Y axis, but the only one I have seen is the Meade 9mm, and it is reported to have only 3mm of eye relief (I wear glasses). I would appreciate any feedback on experience others have had with their guiding eyepieces and recommendations. (For the time being, I intend to do only film astrophotography).

Thanks and clear skies,
Andy B.
