A light microscope is useful for examining pond life, such as infusoria and other small animals and plants. It is best used for specimens which light can pass through.

+++

They are used for all manner of purposes in all manner of technical fields. Opaque objects can be viewed by illuminating them from above. One type is known as polarising microscope because it has filters that polarise the light passing through a transparent specimen, in order to analyse the specimen's structure by its effect on the polarising. These are particularly used in geology to identify and analyse crystalline rocks (the specimen is ground and polished thin enough to pass light).

Microscope is used to see the organism which are not able to see by naked human eyes. It also helps in resolving the two objects which are placed very near to each other. The main use of microscope is in micorbiology and is used to see bacteria, and some fungi and single cell algae

Light microscopes are used to study living organism and to watch and analyze their structures. Electron microscopes use a dead specimen and are able to observe structures in great detail and with much much higher magnification.

+++The electron microscope has a far higher definition and magnification than an optical microscope could achieve, but as you say you could not use it to study a living organism.
