The lens in the eye bends the light so that it's focused on the correct part of the retina. The lens needs to focus it just enough so that we have clear focus. If the lens is not doing its job correctly, people have to wear corrective lenses that bend the light enough to compensate for malfunctioning lens.

What do the lenses on a microscope do to the light as it passes through them - and how does this affect the way an object appears when the light reaches your eye?

The lenses in a microscope diffract (bend) the light as it passes through them. The effect is that an object appears clear and large (is focused and magnified) when the light reaches your eye. Also, microscope designs usually ensure that the object appears right-side-up.


What is an Abbe condenser?

An Abbe condenser is a condenser composed of two lenses which concentrates and controls the light which passes through a specimen before the light enters the objective of a microscope.

Light microscope


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 the light pass through between the light source and your eye?

how does light effect your eye? In a compound light microscope? The light passes through three lenses between the light source and your eye. The first lens is the condenser lens.. The second lens is the objective lens. The third and final lens is the Eyepiece, also known as, the ocular lens. This is the lens you look through. These are the lenses that light must pass through to get from the light source to your eye.
