Electron microscopes therefore allow for the visualization of structures that would normally be not visible by optical microscopy. Light microscopes are not able to see things in a larger magnification compared to electron microscopes. Also you're able to see in 3d in electron microscopes and you can't see in 3dimentsional in light microscopes.
