Example of an optical instrument? (not sample) Microscope.

Telescope
Lenses are used in various applications such as cameras, microscopes, glasses, binoculars, and telescopes to focus, magnify, or diverge light. They are also used in medical devices like endoscopes and in optical instruments for measuring and analyzing light.
they're both reflecting telescopes
They are all instruments which heighten your senses so you can see, hear or speak better. I can't think of an instrument that improves your sense of taste or smell. Perhaps you could add Spectacles, Hearing Aid, Flippers or Fins, etc.
They function on entirely different principles. it is like asking what advantages does a parabolic sound detector ( a common spy device that looks like, but is not radar oriented) have over a pair of binoculars. one records sound or radio wavelengths, the other visual images. They have totally different applications one has a telescope operator as an observer, visually observing targets but the radio-telescope operator is merely a monitor. the analogy with radar is good as they are a derivative of Radio Direction and Ranging, hence RADAR,
There is no practical difference between "glasses" and "spectacles" as both terms refer to the same item used to correct vision. "Spectacles" is more commonly used in British English, while "glasses" is more common in American English.
Yes, the noun 'microscope' is a common noun, a general word for an instrument that uses lenses to magnify small objects; a word for any microscope of any kind.
A Telescope.
