Probably a stupid question, but I know nothing on the "stereo microscope" topic - are these working well for people wearing glasses?

I personally wear bifocals. I take them off when using the microscope, to allow my eyes to get close enough to see the full field of view. It just shift the optimum focus for me, from what's optimum for my tech. Not a big issue.

That approach does not, of course compensate for astigmatism, so if you have significant astigmatism you might do better with glasses on.

I always had +2d astigmatism in both eyes. A nice gift from my father (instrument maker), 50 years ago, was an astigmatic correction lens for my camera's ocular so I could take pictures without glasses but still with sharp and full field vision. It was made to screw in the eye-shield thread on top of the ocular.
A set of lenses in that shape and size should fit on a microscope ocular. But where to obtain them, given an eye correction recipe?
