What is a lens called that has only one curve?
Apex
sph/cylindrical
spherical
Concave (-)
The correct answer is: spherical
A lens that has only one curve is referred to as a spherical lens. In optics, a lens with one curved surface and one flat surface is known as a spherical lens. This type of lens can be used for correcting certain vision problems. The other options are not correct: - Apex is the highest point or tip of a lens. - Sph/cylindrical refers to a combination of a spherical lens and a cylindrical lens, typically used in eyeglasses for astigmatism correction. - Concave (-) refers to a lens surface that curves inward, causing light rays to diverge.
