    Real Field of View) and angular degrees (or Apparent Field of View). Real field of view is the angle of the visible field, seen without moving the lens, measured from the central point of the objective lens. The larger the value is, the wider the view-field available. Apparent field of view is the angle of the magnified field when you look through lens. The larger the apparent field of view is, the wider the field of view you can see even at high magnifications. With the conventional method used

    named flea glasses. The combining of the glass leads to the contribution of the compound microscope created by Zacharias Jansen in the late 1500’s. Those lenses were bi-convex (both sides of the lenses curved) and plano-convex; (one side of the lens curved and the other side plane). Zacharias, a spectacle maker from Middleburg Holland added the lenses in three small tubes, similar to the binoculars of today except a third row was added to a draw tube that slid in and out to allow focusing.

    curve of the cornea (the front of the eye or the clear, round dome covering the eye's iris and pupil). The cornea and lens are generally even and rounded equally in all directions. This mechanism helps the eye to focus light emissions sharply against the retina at the back of the eye. In the cornea of an average eye the lens focuses light waves on the retina. If the cornea or lens isn't smooth and equally rounded the light waves will not be refracted properly. This is stated as an inaccuracy in the
