The two main lenses of a microscope are the objective lens and the ocular (or eyepiece) lens. The objective lens is located near the specimen and typically has varying magnifications, while the ocular lens is situated at the top and is what the viewer looks through to see the magnified image. Together, they work to enhance the detail visible in the specimen being observed.
The ocular lenses on a microscope are located at the top of the microscope's eyepiece tube. They are the lenses that you look through to view the magnified specimen on the microscope slide.
The part of the microscope that you look through is commonly called the eyepiece or ocular lens. It magnifies the image produced by the objective lenses, allowing you to see the specimen clearly.
The objective lenses on a microscope collects light and brings the specimens into focus.
The three common lens names for a microscope are the ocular lens (or eyepiece), the objective lenses, and the condenser lens. The ocular lens is what you look through to see the specimen, while the objective lenses are mounted on a rotating nosepiece and provide different levels of magnification. The condenser lens focuses light onto the specimen to enhance clarity and contrast.
Microscope objective lenses are the lenses located close to the specimen in a compound light microscope. They magnify the image of the specimen and transmit it to the eyepiece for viewing. Objective lenses come in various magnifications, such as 4x, 10x, 40x, and 100x, which allows for different levels of magnification and detail in the specimen being observed.
A magnifying glass has one lenses and a compound light microscope has 2 lenses
A microscope has lenses and an adjustable stage. The lenses magnify the specimen being observed, while the adjustable stage allows for precise positioning of the specimen under the lenses.
A compound microscope has multiple lenses
The ocular lenses on a microscope are located at the top of the microscope's eyepiece tube. They are the lenses that you look through to view the magnified specimen on the microscope slide.
2 or more lenses.
The difference lies in the number of lenses that each microscope has. A compound microscope has 2 or more lenses, like those found in most science classrooms. A simple microscope uses only 1 lens.
A compound microscope uses 2 lenses (objective lens and eyepiece lens) along with a light source to magnify and view samples at high magnification.
An optical microscope uses light and one or more lenses to view cells. An optical microscope with two or more lenses is called a compound optical microscope.

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.
