A microscope is any device used to view an entity that is otherwise invisible to the unaided eye, or to view better details of a very small visible object. An optical microscope is one type that uses the refractive properties of a series of lenses to magnify an image for viewing i.e. a standard lab microscope.

This reduces distortion, and gives one multiple lenses with which to adjust magnification.
