Is it right to use a piece of tissue paper to wipe and clean the objective lens of a microscope?

Lenses of all kinds (eyeglasses, cameras, telescopes, microscopes) can be scratched by paper products (including tissue paper, facial tissue). The companies that sell products containing lenses usually also sell special cloths that can be safely used to clean lenses (often made from soft cotton, or microfibre) -- any such cloth will do to wipe any lens. In a pinch, a cotton T-shirt is better than tissue paper or any paper product.

How would the letter e look under a microscope?
If you're using a compound light microscope (as you most likely are), it will appear to be upside down when you look through the objective lens. The lenses of the microscope provide an inverted image. As the magnification is increased, the clean lines of the letter will appear ragged where the ink was absorbed into the paper. These small imperfections are practically invisible to the unaided eye.

Rules to follow when handling a microscope?
1. Always carry the microscope in an upright position with two hands. One hand should support the base and the other should be on the on the arm. Use lens paper and lens cleaning solution to clean the lenses on the microscope. Paper towel will scratch the lenses. Use a soft cloth to clean other parts of the microscope. Lens cleaning fluid and paper is a must. Do not substitute paper towel, which is far too coarse and will scratch the lenses. Always set your microscope on a clean, flat surface. 5. Always remove slides from the stage and rotate the nosepiece to the lowest power before returning the microscope to its storage area.
