A refracting telescope uses lenses. The primary objective is the larger lens and the first point of light refraction. A smaller, secondary lens is located between the primary lens and the eyepiece as acts as another refraction device to correct or reverse the refractive aberration of the primary.
The lenses used in reflector telescope is the concave lens.
The two lenses on a refracting telescope are typically called the objective lens (at the front of the telescope) and the eyepiece lens (at the back of the telescope). The objective lens gathers and focuses light from distant objects, while the eyepiece lens magnifies the focused image for the viewer.
The reflecting telescope
Refracting telescope.
Telescopes typically use convex lenses (also called objective lenses) to gather and focus light from distant objects. These lenses help magnify the images and make distant objects appear closer and more detailed. Eyepieces with different magnifications are then used to further enhance the view.
The lenses used in reflector telescope is the concave lens.
That telescope you are refering to is called a refracting telescope.

On eyeglasses? Two lenses = bifocals Three lenses = Trofocals
A telescope uses lenses...
It is a telescope that uses lenses and mirrors.
Lenses had been known for some time before the telescope was invented. No one really specifically "invented" the telescope lens, they simply used existing equipment (lenses) in a new device (the telescope).

the reflecting telescope uses mirrors and lenses. The refracting telescope does not include the mirrors.
