No. It is possible to have them tinted though. If you are going to do this, bear in mind that anti-reflective coated lenses will not tint as well as uncoated ones.

What did the Romans discover as they experiment with different shapes of clear glass lenses?
I don't think this is right but It might be the spectrum of visible light. You know the rainbow?
What happens to poorly stated questions?
Sometimes a question is stated in such a way that no clear correction of the question is possible and therefore the question will just sit there with no answer.

Who uses the microscope?
The first record of the use of lenses to manipulate images was in Greek and Roman writings of around 1000 A.D. As for the origins of someone using lenses to magnify a minute object, it is unclear. Most scientific instruments have a clear place in the historical records when they were formed and who created them, not the microscope though. The definition of the microscope makes it difficult to determine when it was first created. Since there were lenses dating back to ancient societies, how do we say when those lenses were used to look at minute objects? It is practically impossible to say when a single lens was used in that fashion. Credit for the first compound microscope (multiple lenses) is generally given to Zacharias Jansen and John Lippershey of the Netherlands, in 1590. It is likely that the microscope was a result of work made on the telescope. The telescope had much more practical uses in that time, because it could be used for maritime navigation.This idea is supported by the account of one of the first compound microscopes, which was six feet long and had a one inch barrel with a lens at either end. After the compound microscope the next major development was in lenses. Half a century after the compound microscope, both Anthony van Leeuwenhoek and Robert Hooke realized that lenses with very short focal lengths was the key to more magnification. This meant the use of extremely double convex or spherical lenses. They also used lenses made of pure quartz, creating a more pure glass instead of the poor quality, greenish glass of the day. The problem of making lenses in this fashion was that it created chromatic aberration. This aberration is because different wavelengths of light are refracted different amounts, resulting in a smeared image instead of a clear one. In 1758 John Dollard patented an achromatic lens. Even with this new lens, it was not until 1930 when Lister was able to use it to alleviate the problem of chromatic aberration. Much of the interim time was spent on telescope technology. Another form of the microscope, first proposed by Isaac newton in 1692, is the reflecting microscope. In this case the light would not pass through a lens, but would reflect off of a concave mirror. Since all light is reflected the same, there would be no problem with chromatic aberration. The first reflecting microscope was made by Barker in 1736. This model was developed directly from reflecting telescope designs. Reflecting microscopes are used today, but the transmission type are much more prevalent.
