Glasses may have convex or concave lenses, depending on the needs of the wearer. A lense for correcting myopia (near-sightedness) is concave, being thinner in the middle than at the edges. A lense correcting hyperopia (farsightedness) is convex, buldging in the middle and becoming thinner toward the edges.

What is the overall shape of the vertebral column?
There are essentially 3 curves in the human spine: 1. Cervical lordotic curve 2. Thoracic kyphotic curve 3. Lumbar lordotic curve In summary the human spine has 2 lordotic curves and 1 kyphotic curve. If you are looking at a person sideways with their face facing towards your left, the lordotic curve is concave and the kyphotic curve is convex.
What type of lenses help correct vision problems?
Concave and Convex
What happens to most of the light rays that strike the convex lens?
Most of the light rays that strike a convex lens converge, or come together, at a focal point. This is due to the lens shape and the way it refracts light.
The eye doctor tells you that the lens of your eye is a bit too strong and your eyeball is elongated she will probably prescribe glasses for you that will correct?
nearsightedness. Glasses with concave lenses will be prescribed to help diverge light rays before they reach your eye, allowing them to focus properly on the retina and improve your vision.
What is a depression slide?
it is a piece of glass where microscopic specimens are placed for observation. This slide has a circle in the middle with a convex side and a concave side. The sample should be placed in the depression- on the concave side.
Is a lenses in glasses concave or convex?
Lenses can be concave or convex depending on their shape. Concave lenses curve inward and are thinner in the center, causing light to diverge. Convex lenses curve outward and are thicker in the center, causing light to converge. Glasses can have either concave or convex lenses, depending on what vision correction is needed.
List two uses for concave lens?
Both concave and convex lenses are used in glasses; A microscope, like a reflecting telescope, uses a concave mirror, a plane mirror, and a convex lens; A refracting telescope uses two convex lenses to magnify images in the sky; binoculars use concave lenses to improve detail.
How do people use lenses to see things a long way away?
Lenses are either concave or convex. Concave lenses curve inward from both sides, and convex lenses curve outward one side and inward on the other. Concave and convex lenses change the image to be able to see from close or far distances.These are used for glasses, magnifying glasses, and telescopes.
What is the opposite of Convex?
The opposite of convex is concave. Concave shapes have an inward curve, while convex shapes have an outward curve.
