It's called an "OCULAR" according to a microscope supplier site.
high power objective lens and low power objective lens
The eyepiece, or ocular lens is the lens that is closest to eyes when anyone look through the microscope.

Ocular lens
microscope consists of two lens called eye lens and objective lens. objective lens is lens kept behind object and eye lens is keep on the top of microscope .i.e. on the place through which we look. firstly the object is placed behind the objective of microscope which is turned into virtual, erect and magnified image. later this image is thought to be the object for the eye lens and this objects forms real, inverted and magnified image.
An optical microscope used in a laboratory would have 3 different types of lenses.They are :-(1) Condenser lens- directs light to the specimen if there is no in built light source.(2) Eye piece - lens close to the eye of the observer which magnifies the image created by the objective lens.(3) Objective - These are the lenses which are positioned closest to the specimen mounted on the stage of the microscope which magnifies the specimen. There could be several objective lenses in an optical microscope, generally three. The low power objective (usually magnifies 4 times), mid power objective (usually magnifies 10 times) and the high power objective (usually magnifies 40 times).
A low power objective in a microscope is a Small Lens with Low Magnifying Power. A microscope head with two eyepiece lenses, one for each eye. Generally this term is used in describing a high power (compound) microscope. With a low power microscope we say "stereo" head because, unlike the compound microscope, the stereo has a separate objective lens for each eyepiece lens, producing two independent paths of light, one for each eye. In the compound microscope with a binocular head, there are two eyepiece lenses but still only one objective lens and you will not get stereo vision. Hope this helps.
The ocular lens, also known as the eyepiece lens, is the part of a compound microscope that a user looks into to see a magnified image. It is a see-through double convex lens curved to cause images to appear larger. It is an essential element to every compound microscope.
The part of a compound microscope that magnifies an object is called a the ocular. An ocular is the exact same thing as an eye piece lens.

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.

Subjective lens and objective lens. Hope it helps :)
It looks foggy :)

That is called the "objective lens." You can remember it because it is closest to the object you are looking at.

Eye piece and . . .lens ;-)
I't rests your eye so you won't get "eyeprints" on the lens. The eye peice is used to keep the lens in place as well as your eye.
