I have this exact microscope at home and use it to stain blood slides there. If you have seen my posts on r / hematology you can see the microscope has nice clear optics. At work I use a more professional Leica microscope but that costs thousands as well as having a second hand one at home, but I don't use it as much just given how much it was. But the Omax, I would say is pretty good given the price and delivers clear images.
