I assume that the the question deals with concave and convex lenses. Light rays entering a flat surface and exiting a convex side of a lens will be spread apart enlarging the image. Light entering a flat surface and exiting the concave part of the lens will make the image smaller at close distances, then invert the object at greater distances. There are combinations of lenses that make the image more complex to describe. Now I must add it does matter what distance the image on a screen is from the source as to how the source appears. To know this you need to know the focal length of the lens. If f is the focal length the lens maker uses, and o is the object projecting light's distance from the lens and i is the distance we observe the object after it passes through the lens, the 1/o+1/i =1/f.
