 Zacharias Janssen inventor of compound microscope
The Dutch claim that spectacle makers; Zacharias and his father Hans invented the microscope around 1595 in Middleburg, Zeeland.
The construction was of 2 tubes that gave a magnification of 10 X. The lens in the eyepiece was bi-convex (bulging outwards on both sides), and the lens of the far end (the objective lens) was plano-convex (flat on one side and bulging outwards on the other side).
This model was made according to a copy of the original one by the Janssen brothers that appeared in an antique shop in Paris in 1891.

 This Month in Physics History
Janssen was the son of a spectacle maker named Hans Janssen, in Middleburg, Holland, and while Zacharias is credited with inventing the compound microscope, most historians surmise that his father must have played a vital role, since Zacharias was still in his teens in the 1590s.
Historians are able to date the invention to the early 1590s thanks to Dutch diplomat William Boreel, a longtime family friend of the Janssens who wrote a letter to the French king in the 1650s detailing the origins of the microscope.
The Yorkshire scientist Henry Power was the first to publish observations made with a microscope, and in 1661 Marcello Malphigi used a microscope to provide clinching evidence in support of Harvey's theory of blood circulation when he discovered the capillary vessels in the lungs of a frog.

El diplomático holandés William Boreel, testificaría poco después que Lippershey había robado la idea del instrumento a Zacharias Janssen, cuando éste tenía sólo 2 años de edad.

Credit for the initial device has historically been given to a Dutch craftsman, Zacharias Janssen, working in the Netherlands late in the 16th century as a spectacle maker.
Janssen subsequently extrapolated this approach to visual amplification by creatively attaching two such lenses at opposite ends of hand-held tube.
Janssen’s device was unquestionably primitive, but the microscope (from Greek words meaning "to see small"), would shortly reveal a hitherto unimagined realm of life.

The next breakthrough in microscopy was the invention of the compound microscope; however, the origin of this device, as well as the identity of its inventor, is the subject of some debate.
Around 1590, Janssen reportedly stumbled upon an idea for a multiple-lens microscope design, which he then constructed.
Currently, it is believed that Janssen's son fabricated the story.

Although magnifying glasses and burning glasses had been known since classical times, and eyeglasses were in use by 1300, it was not until the final decade of the 16th century that instrument makers first created optical instruments for scientific exploration.
The invention of the telescope is sometimes credited to Zacharias Janssen or James Metius, but evidence suggests that spectacle maker Hans Lippershey was the first to construct a telescope.
One day, while holding a spectacle lens in either hand, Lippershey happened to view a nearby church steeple through both lenses and was astonished to see that it appeared larger than before.
