Question
What is a "correction collar" of high magnification objective lenses for?
 
Answer
Most of objective lenses for biomedical microscopes are designed for observation of samples with a cover glass on. Sometimes the sample is not properly focused due to uneven thickness of cover glasses used. To fully display the performance of the objective, the thickness between the cover glass surface to the specimen can be corrected at the objective side, by this correction collar.
