lenses
A lens is a transmissive optical device that focuses or disperses a light beam by means of refraction. A simple lens consists of a single piece of transparent material, while a compound lens consists of several simple lenses (elements), usually arranged along a common axis. Lenses are made from materials such as glass or plastic and are ground, polished, or molded to the required shape. A lens can focus light to form an image, unlike a prism, which refracts light without focusing. Devices that similarly focus or disperse waves and radiation other than visible light are also called "lenses", such as microwave lenses, electron lenses, acoustic lenses, or explosive lenses. Lenses are used in various imaging devices like telescopes, binoculars, and cameras. They are also used as visual aids in glasses to correct defects of vision such as myopia and hypermetropia.

Examples of lenses in a Sentence
People who wear costume contacts or colored contacts that they find at the dollar store or the flea market usually end up in my office needing treatment of some kind, i see patients all the time who come in who may wear colored lenses and they talk about how they’re not comfortable and they ca n’t always see well.
I was putting my contact lenses in, and I'm bending over at the thing, and I had nothing but my shorts on, and she made some comment...about something about, 'I've seen a lot of tight ends...' but just kept right on walking down the hall, and I asked who that was, and it was Kathie Lee Johnson. And I'd seen her on television, and I could not believe how unbelievably up she was. But that's her.
He'd hesitated in sharing them (his life struggles), telling me that they far from measured up against what I'd dealt with, but I'd assured him that to each of us, our challenges are struggles, real to us without comparison to what anyone else is going through...that through our own lenses, life looks shitty sometimes and we think we'll bend under the weight of it...
If you have any eye symptoms, things like eye pain, eye redness, decreased vision, please see an ophthalmologist for evaluation, and when you come, please bring anything that could potentially be causing this infection, especially eye drops, contact lenses or contact lens cases.
It is hard to let old beliefs go. They are familiar. We are comfortable with them and have spent years building systems and developing habits that depend on them. Like a man who has worn eyeglasses so long that he forgets he has them on, we forget that the world looks to us the way it does because we have become used to seeing it that way through a particular set of lenses. Today, however, we need new lenses. And we need to throw the old ones away.
