Answer

Optical Theory and Microscope Design were revolutionized by Zeiss and Abbe in the late 1800s. Abbe's diffraction theory provided the basis for the design of high-quality microscopes, and Zeiss was a master lens maker who produced some of the best microscopes of the time. Their work together led to a new era in microscopy, which made it possible to see things in much greater detail than ever before.
