Compound Light Microscope: The microscope pictured above is referred to as a compound light microscope. The term light refers to the method by which light transmits the image to your eye. Compound deals with the microscope having more than one lens. Microscope is the combination of two words; micro meaning small and scope meaning view. Early microscopes, like Leeuwenhoek's, were called simple because they only had one lens. Simple scopes work like magnifying glasses that you have seen and/or used.
Dissecting microscopes are used for viewing live specimens or three-dimensional objects too large or thick to be accommodated by compound microscopes. Specimens can be physically manipulated under magnification, since they do not have to be mounted onto a slide for observation under a dissecting microscope.
