Eyepieces and lenses are essential devices in optical instruments such as telescopes, microscopes, and binoculars. They operate together to magnify and focus light, producing an image that human eyes can see.
The eyepiece is positioned near the focal point of the objective lens. Its job is to magnify the real image formed by the objective, creating a virtual image that the eye then views.
In most optical instruments, the objective lens (or sometimes a mirror in telescopes) is the first optical component that light encounters. Its primary function is to gather light from the object being observed and bring it to a focus to create an actual image.
Lenses and eyepieces are fundamental tools for magnifying and focusing light on optical instruments. The objective lens gathers light and produces a real-world image. Meanwhile, the eyepiece magnifies this image for viewing by the human eye. The combination of these optical elements determines the instrument's overall magnification, field of view, and image quality.
