Refracting Telescope Bending. The objective lens and the eyepiece. Refracting telescopes work by bending light. The glass lens “refracts” (or bends) the light so that it reaches a focal point. A refracting telescope, or a refractor, uses a combination of lenses to produce images of distant objects, e.g., stars and planets that would otherwise not be visible with the human eye. A simple refracting telescope is made up of two lenses, which are called the objective and the eyepiece. Light is bent as it passes from one. This phenomenon is called refraction. The size of the lens (known as the telescope’s “objective”) determines the amount of light the telescope can collect. (this is also referred to as the telescope’s “aperture”.) Simply put, a refractor is a type of telescope that uses a lens to bend (or refract) light to a point. A telescope using a lens for its main optical element is called a refracting telescope. Like eyeglasses, the lenses bend, or refract, light passing through them. The point where the light path intersects is called the “focal point”, and is. The objective lens sits at the front of the telescope, and its. A refracting telescope works by using two convex lenses:
