When light passes through a flat piece of glass, like a window, the light is refracted at both surfaces, but the exiting ray of light is parallel to the entering ray and hence the light's path is not really changed.
It gets separated into different beams of energy such as earth wind and fire.
The only place I've ever seen the term used is in a science fiction story called "Light of Other Days" (and apparently some other works by the same author), in which "slow glass" is used to refer to a glass-like material in which the speed of light is so slow that it takes months or years to travel through a reasonably-sized piece.

Nothing but shape. A lens is just a curved piece of glass, as well as glass being a straight lens. A lens bends the light while glass does not*. *Assuming the glass is straight
A broken piece of glass is called a shard.

A watch glass is a very shallow, round piece of glass that is curved. It is usually not used as a container, but as a cover for a beaker.
