Whenviewed through the eye-piece, this image is seen as a magnifiedvirtual image, O4, at a distance C= 10 inches, or 250 millimetersbelow the eye-point, EP, this being the distance of most distinctvision for the normal eye. The distance between Fi and F2is called the optical tube length; the distance, L, is the me-chanical tube length, » Figures 12 and 13 refer speci6cally to the Bausch and Iximb microscopes used in thisexperiment, and are reproduced through the courtesy of the Bausch and Lomb OpticalCompany.
