The sketch shows a relatively true situation I believe (I'm asking for confirmation).
The thicker lens which is both concave and convex (the green one) has a smaller radii of curvature on the convex surface (A) and surface (B) is shallower in comparison.
The thin lens (the blue one) is convex (C) and rather flat (D).
The photos show the lens as a whole and in pieces. The retaining ring is the larger of the two rings. The spacing ring is the smaller.
My sketch is my best guess at the correct arrangement. This is NOT what it was when I purchased the lens so someone has fiddled with it before me ...
I would appreciate being told if I'm on the right track ...
I was trying to clean the lens because it has some white material on the edges. I wonder if it is fungus ...
Cheers,
