The pH glass electrode is immersed in water because the outer layer of glass become soft (microscopic level). The external layer become hydrated. The cations in the solution are exchanged. This process is called cation exchange method.

A lens of glass is immersed in water. What will happen to its power?

The power of a lens depends on the differences in the refractive indices of the environment and the lens material. A glass lens immersed in water will loose power (a positive lens will focus at a greater distance). (This is for normal glass with refractive index greater than water - there could be glasses with refractive index less than water in which case the lens would gain power)
