Amicroscope that has more than one lens and owns a light source is a compound light microscope. In this ocular, lenses are in binocular eyepieces and objective lenses in nosepiece closer to specimen.It can view the magnified image of the small object on a glass slide and achieve a higher level of magnification in comparison to low power microscopes. Its magnification is between 40x to 1000x. The magnification is achieved by an objective lens that has a shorter focal length and the eyepiece that has a larger focal length.
