One thing to note is that Nikon is generally using a 200-mm tube lens focal length. The magnification is the ratio between the tube lens and objective lens focal length. So, if your objective is 10X (in air), its focal length is 200 / 10 = 20.0 mm. You could use a Paraxial surface with a focal length of 20.0 mm to simulate the objective at first.
If you use an immersion lens, you may want to look into this custom surface by
