What is the difference between a concave and convex lens?
Convex lenses are thicker in the middle than at the edges. They refract toward the center. Only people have convex lenses. Concave lenses are used in telescopes and glasses. Concave lenses are thinner in the middle than at the edges. When light passes through concave lenses always bend away from each other toward the edges of the lens.A convex or "positive" lens is thicker in the middle and thinner at the edges. A concave, or "negative" lens is thinner at the middle and thicker at the edges. Convex lenses project a real image behind the lens; concave lenses project a virtual image in front of the lens.
What is a lens has a center that is thicker than its edges?
A convex lens.
Explain the shape of a concave lens and a convex lens?
A convex lens is thicker in the center than at the edges. A convex lens is like a concave mirror.A concave lens is thinner in the center than at the edges.
What lens are thicker at edges than middle?
CONCAVE lens.
Is a convex lens edge thicker than the middle?
The edges of a convex lens are thicker than the middle.
What has a thinner middle than the edges?
concave lens
Is a contact lens a diverging or a converging lens?
They can be either. They will converge if thicker in the middle than edges, and diverge if thinner in the middle than edges.

What type of glass lenses are fatter in the middle than at the edges called?
Convex lens are thicker in the middle. Concave lens are thinner in the middle.
What is a lens has a center that is thicker than its edges?
A convex lens.
What shape does concave and convex lens make?
Concave is thinner in the center than the edges and convex lens is thicker in the center than on the edges :)
