The eye-piece in common use is negative, and is generally knownas Huyghenss, and sometimes as Campanis. Monconys appeals tohave been the first (1665) to supply the field-lens to the eye-lens ofthe microscope, and Hooke in 1665 adopted his suggestion ; buthow far Monconys was indebted for this to the compound eye-pieceattributed to Huyghens cannot now be determined. This instrument, as commonly used in a telescope, consists ofan eye-lens and a field-lens, each being plano-convex, having theirconvex sides towards the object, their foci being in the ratio of.
