Generally, the reticle is installed on the focal plane of the right eyepiece of the telescope. It is a thin glass with dense reticle lines on its surface. Theoretically, this thin glass also participates in the imaging and extends the focal length of the objective lens, which will have more or less influence on the length of the right eyepiece.
