I have a small speck or chip on the inside of my viewfinder lens--can this lens be replaced? It really bugs me although it doesn't affect the pictures

Get a blower and blow the mirror and focus screen and see if it comes off.

get a micro fiber cholth and wipe the glass in the view finder.

can you see the spec when you look at the mirror and focusing screen in bright light?

It is definitely on the INSIDE of the viewfinder lens and I don't know how to get to it. I can see the spot-it almost looks like a chip although I have no idea how this could have happened in bright light with the lens off although not from the inside (only from the back of the camera).
