Explanation:
A concave lens is a lens that possesses at least one surface that curves inwards. ... It is a diverging lens, meaning that it spreads out light rays that have been refracted through it. A concave lens is thinner at its centre than at its edges, and is used to correct short-sightedness (myopia).

Answer:
A concave lens is used to diverge incident rays. This helps to create a virtual image on the opposite side of the refracting surface. Hence, these lenses are used in binoculars, telescopes, cameras, flashlights and eyeglasses. The images are erect and upright, unlike the real images.
