A concave mirror is usually used to project something onto a screen. A concave lens is usually used to view an image through the naked eye.
A concave lens is thinner in the middle and thicker at the edges, causing light rays to diverge. A concave mirror, on the other hand, is curved inward like the inside of a bowl, causing light rays to converge at a focal point. Both have different optical properties and applications.
The difference between the two is that once the light passes through the concave lens it diverges, and the rays are refracted outward, and never meet a focal point. Then there is the parallel light rays that bounce off the curved surface of a concave mirror and then meet a single point ( focal point).
The difference is that when virtual image is formed by the concave mirror...it is larger than its original size..but when it is formed by the convex mirror..it is smaller than the original size....
A concave lens behaves more like a concave mirror because it diverges light rays away from a focal point, whereas a convex mirror converges light rays towards a focal point.
A convex lens is more like a concave mirror in the way it produces images. A convex lens converges light rays to form real or virtual images, much like how a concave mirror can do the same by reflecting light. Both convex lenses and concave mirrors can produce both real and virtual images depending on the object's position relative to the lens or mirror.

In a concave lens the object always forms a virtual image. The convex lens also forms a virtual image.

A concave lens and a convex lens are what you're looking for. / | ∙ \
A convex mirror bulges out. A concave mirror curves inward.For a convex mirror, light rays are reflected to meet at a point, while, for a concave mirror, light rays seem to be reflected from a point. If the incident rays were paraxial, the reflected rays are reflected to meet at, or appear to be reflected to a point referred to as the focal point of the lens. For a convex mirror, the focal point is real, while, that of a concave lens is virtual.
