Abstract

A microscope for imaging an object, comprising a lens assembly, which defines an optical axis and a focal plane perpendicular thereto, and correction optics, which are adjustable for adjustment to a depth position and which correct a spherical aberration on the lens assembly which occurs during imaging of the object at a specific depth position of the focal plane. The microscope may be used to determine a phase difference of radiation from a first lateral region and a second lateral region of the object, and to use a previously known connection between the phase difference and a modification of the spherical aberration caused thereby in order to determine an adjustment value of the correction optics, such that the spherical aberration is reduced when imaging the second region.
