• (n.) A piece of glass, or other transparent substance, ground with two opposite regular surfaces, either both curved, or one curved and the other plane, and commonly used, either singly or combined, in optical instruments, for changing the direction of rays of light, and thus magnifying objects, or otherwise modifying vision. In practice, th...

A series of transparent pieces of glass and/or plastic that are combined to receive and refract light in a controlled manner. The light that is received forms an image in the shape of a refined cone producing a focal point behind the lens onto a piece of film. Light rays of various colors do not focus at the same point; accordingly, the various pie...

A clear disk that focuses light, as in a camera or microscope. In the eye, the lens is a clear, curved structure at the front of the eye behind the pupil. It focuses light rays that enter the eye through the pupil, making an image on the retina (light-sensitive layers of nerve tissue at the back of the eye).

A clear optical element that produces an image by refraction. A convex lens makes light rays converge at a focal point, while a concave lens causes rays to diverge. A thinner lens has a longer focal length than a thicker one, and is also easier to make and suffers less from chromatic aberration and ...

(Digital cameras and photo printers) Transparent glass or plastic that has been formed and polished to form a certain shape, usually spherical. When a beam of light reaches the area between the air and the lens, a part of this light is always reflected. The remaining light passes into the lens and alters its propagation direction, i.e. the light i...
