# (general): a small lens. e.g. In refractive eye surgery, in the epikeratophakia process, the donated cornea is shaped into a lenticle, the edges are bevelled and are fitted into a corresponding grove in the patient's cornea. The lenticle is then sutured to the patient's cornea. # (antique furniture): a glass panel in a clock case through which one can see the movement of the pendulum. # (geology): a lens-shaped layer of mineral or rock that is embedded in a different material. # (botany): Lenticles: small brown corky spots on the surface of stems and roots of plants. They do not open and close as the stomata do, but they are porous and enable the exchange of gas/liquid between the inner tissues and the atmosphere.

Why lenticels are used?

Lenticels are found on the stem or trunk of plants (very evident in things like cherry trees). In short, lenticels are a type of pore. They serve as a site of gas exchange on the plant (place where oxygen and carbon dioxide can enter and exit). Lenticels are also, unfortunately, a site where pathogens such as fungi, bacteria, and viruses can enter the plant.Lenticels work separately from the stomates and are primarily found on woody plants.
