What is the lens that is closest to the eye in a light microscope?

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.
