During the first century AD glass had been invented and the Romans were the first to discover magnification with the use of curved glass that they called flea glass because fleas were among the first items to observe upon. The compound microscope was invented by two Dutch spectacle makers in 1590 by putting two magnification lenses together in a tube.
