Convex lens are explained completely in this video lessons. Learn about convex lenses, their focussing system, and other details here.

What is a Convex Lens?
An optical lens is generally made up of two spherical surfaces. If the surfaces of the lens are bent outwards, the lens is called a convex lens or biconvex lens. A convex lens converges a straight beam of light and is thicker at the center and gets thinner as we move towards the edges.

Uses of a convex lens:
1. Convex lens present in the human eye helps us to see.
2. A convex lens is used to correct long-sightedness or hypermetropia.
3. It is used in magnifying glass.
4. It is used in cameras as it focuses light and produces a clear image.

Thanks for watching this video on convex lenses. We at BYJU’S strongly believe that a spirit of learning and understanding can only be inculcated when the student is curious, and that curiosity can be brought about by creative and effective teaching. It is this approach that makes our lectures so successful and gives our students an edge over their counterparts.
