Lente


Explanation:
As it seems you might be working with something related to photography I would go with just "Lente". It is the word we use to speak about cameras, binoculars and microscopes...

"Pieza de cristal, generalmente circular, con alguna de sus caras cóncavas o convexas, que se emplea en instrumentos ópticos."

E.g -- > "la lente de un microscopio; la lente de un telescopio"

Example sentence(s):
  • "la lente de un microscopio; la lente de un telescopio"

neutral  Chema Nieto Castañón: Hola Miriam, como menciono en respuesta el Buscador es la otra pieza con la que se puede mirar al utilizar un telescopio (que es un visor/lente con menos aumentos), por lo que creo que denominaciones genéricas (visor, lente) podrían resultar ambiguas
