Most lenses are actually a meniscus design. the front curve is the base curve and the back side is either more or less curved than the base curve. Since most people are myopic (near-sighted) their lenses are usually a simple concave design rather than biconcave. Biconcave lenses are generally reserved for extremely high myopic prescriptions.
