They are Reseda seed pods. They are green, they are wiggly, they have "mouths" at the ends. Reseda also has ruffled finger-like leaves.
We know they had a sharp eye (either naturally or with spectacles) because the VMS is very small (about the size of a trade paperback) and many folios have tiny details (like patterns on the rosettes page and significant details in the roots of the plant most people call the "water lily").
Reading tubes, reading lenses, and spectacles have been around since at least the 13th century (I have blogged about some of the early examples). There are 14th-century frescoes, and drawings in manuscripts, of people wearing glasses.

About moss, I am aware they don't have flower and none of the real parts. But If they do have similarity, then we must answer, what is the size of the mentioned moss' capsule, leaf, and rhizoid? Was the person using lens or had a sharp eye? I shouldn't challenge more. who knows the unknown.
