  2. Magnifying glass - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnifying_glass

    A pen seen through a magnifying glass Jim Hutton as detective Ellery Queen, posing with a magnifying glass. A magnifying glass is a convex lens that is used to produce a magnified image of an object. The lens is usually mounted in a frame with a handle. Beyond its primary function of magnification, this simple yet ingenious tool serves a ...

  3. Magnification - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnification

    A magnifying glass, which uses a positive (convex) lens to make things look bigger by allowing the user to hold them closer to their eye. A telescope , which uses its large objective lens or primary mirror to create an image of a distant object and then allows the user to examine the image closely with a smaller eyepiece lens, thus making the ...

  4. Optical microscope - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Optical_microscope

    A simple microscope uses a lens or set of lenses to enlarge an object through angular magnification alone, giving the viewer an erect enlarged virtual image. [1] [2] The use of a single convex lens or groups of lenses are found in simple magnification devices such as the magnifying glass, loupes, and eyepieces for telescopes and microscopes.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Optical_instrument

    Vertometer which is used to determine refractive power of lenses such as glasses, contact lenses and magnifier lens; DNA sequencers can be considered optical instruments, as they analyse the color and intensity of the light emitted by a fluorochrome attached to a specific nucleotide of a DNA strand.

  6. Optics - Wikipedia

    Single lenses have a variety of applications including photographic lenses, corrective lenses, and magnifying glasses while single mirrors are used in parabolic reflectors and rear-view mirrors. Combining a number of mirrors, prisms, and lenses produces compound optical instruments which have practical uses.

  7. Condenser (optics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Condenser_(optics)

    In epifluorescence microscopy, the objective lens acts not only as a magnifier for the light emitted by the fluorescing object, but also as a condenser for the incident light. The Arlow-Abbe condenser is a modified Abbe condenser that replaces the iris diaphragm, filter holder, lamp and lamp optics with a small OLED or LCD digital display unit.
