convex and concave (for glasses im assuming...)
Magnifying glasses use convex lenses
Convex bulges outward (thicker in the center than the edge)Concave bulges inward (thinner in the center than the edge)Convex lenses magnify when you look through then, concave lenses make things look smaller.You can focus a distant object to a point with a convex lens (the image will be upside down).
Convex lenses are thicker in the middle than at the edges. They refract toward the center. Only people have convex lenses. Concave lenses are used in telescopes and glasses. Concave lenses are thinner in the middle than at the edges. When light passes through concave lenses always bend away from each other toward the edges of the lens.A convex or "positive" lens is thicker in the middle and thinner at the edges. A concave, or "negative" lens is thinner at the middle and thicker at the edges. Convex lenses project a real image behind the lens; concave lenses project a virtual image in front of the lens.
yes
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.
convex and concave (for glasses im assuming...)
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.
concave and convex lenses are used in eye glassses
Magnifying glasses use convex lenses
They are not the same. Convex lens bulge outward, and concave lenses go in ward. Convex lenses focus light, and concave lenses spread light out.
Objective lenses are convex lenses.

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.
They use convex lenses because they need to focus the light IN to the eye. Convex focuses in while concave spreads the light out. So, they use convex lenses.
