I think it's the microscope lens or the objective lens. Hope this helps!
It's called an "OCULAR" according to a microscope supplier site.

On a microscope with the usual 3-lens turret it is usual to use the objective lens with the lowest magnification to first examine your specimen. This gives a wider overall view of the subject, and will allow you to choose the particular detail that best suits your study. You may then move on to a higher magnification, if necessary, to study finer detail. If you started with the highest magnification, your fine focus will be uncertain, and you risk the front of the objective lens coming into contact with the sample slide. This could damage your specimen, and may damage the front of the lens.
The object being examined is placed directly under the objective lens of a compound microscope. The objective lens is the lens closest to the specimen and is used to magnify the image of the object.
The lens you look through in a telescope, binocular, or microscope is called the eyepiece. It is the lens closest to your eye that magnifies the image produced by the objective lens.
The eyepiece of a microscope is the top part of the microscope in which you look through to see your magnified object. There is no other name for the eyepiece The eyepiece holds the ocular lens. If there are two eyepieces (one for each eye) they are called biocular lenses.
