\huge\mathcal\color{teal} Answer :-

A lens is a transmissive optical device that affects the focus of a light beam through refraction.

A simple lens consists of a single piece of material, while a compound lens consists of several simple lenses (elements), usually along a common axis. Lenses are made from transparent materials such as glass, ground and polished to a desired shape.

A lens can focus light to form an image, unlike a prism, which refracts light without focusing. Devices that similarly refract radiation other than visible light are also called lenses, such as microwave lenses or acoustic lenses.

________________________________

There are two types of lenses :- Concave and convex

Concave lens :- Thin in the middle but thicker at the edges.

Convex lens :- Thick at the centre but thinner at the edges.
