Concave and Convex Lenses

• A lens is a transparent object with at least one curved side that causes light to bend. The amount of bending can be controlled by making the sides of the lenses more or less curved.

• A concave lens works to make something look smaller.• A concave lens is also called a
diverging lens. • They are thin in the middle
and thick at the edges. (Think “cave”)
