why does the ray passing from optical centre doesn't get refracted

ray incident on this area, at any angle, will be refracted twice at parallel interfaces. Therefore it will emerge on the other side of the lens on a direction slightly displaced, but parallel to the incident one. Since the parallel displacement is tiny as long as the lens is not too thick, it looks like the ray passes through the center undeviated.
