The image formed by the objective lens of a compound microscope is a real image.

The compound microscope magnifies the image in two stages. First an objective lens produces an enlarged image of the object in a 'real' image plane. Then this real image is further magnified by the ocular lens or eyepiece which produces the virtual image.

The objective lens is positioned close to the object which is to be viewed. It forms an upside-down, magnified real image because the light rays actually pass through the place where the image lies.  The ocular lens makes the light rays spread more. So they appear to come from a large inverted image beyond the objective lens. The light rays do not actually pass through this location so the image is known as a virtual image.

This is an interesting question.

The image formed by the objective lens of a compound microscope is a real, inverted, and magnified image. Final image is inverted which is then further magnified.The objective lens of the compound microscope is a convex lens. A convex lens of short focal length is used. This microscope is used to see objects which cannot be seen with naked eye like blood cells.

Hope this will help you.
