A light microscope that has two lenses is called a?
light microskope
What is an instrument that allows light to pass through the specimen and uses two lens to from an image called?
The answer you are looking for is called a dissecting or stereo microscope. These provide a lower magnification range in comparison to compound microscopes and they use two sets of lenses, the eyepiece and the objective lenses. these then provide a 3D image.
How many lenses does a compound microscope have?
The term compound microscope normally refers to a light microscope that uses two or more lenses to magnify objects. (Two lenses does not refer to the number of eye pieces as does the term binocular microscope.) This is to be distinguished from a simple light microscope with a single lens. There are many modern variations of the light microscope which have more specialized names but which may still be "compound" with the meaning that they have multiple stages of magnification. See related links.

How many lenses does a simple microscope have?

Why does a microscope have two lenses?
