Monocular microscopes

— an eyepiece with a single lens that can only be viewed with one eye. For obvious reasons, it is only used in biological microscopes (see "Type"). The advantages of monoculars are primarily smaller size and cost than other varieties; in addition, they do not require adjustment for interpupillary distance. On the other hand, constantly looking into the eyepiece with one eye is tiring, so this option is poorly suited for situations where you have to look into the microscope often and for a long time.
