Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

An optical imaging lens including a first lens element, a second lens element, a third lens element, a fourth lens element, a fifth lens element, a sixth lens element, a seventh lens element, and an eighth lens element sequentially along an optical axis from an object side to an image side is provided. Each of the first lens element to the eighth lens element includes an object-side surface facing the object side and allowing imaging rays to pass through and an image-side surface facing the image side and allowing the imaging rays to pass through. A periphery region of the object-side surface of the third lens element is concave, and a periphery region of the image-side surface of the third lens element is convex. Lens elements of the optical imaging lens are only the above-mentioned eight lens elements, and the optical imaging lens satisfies the condition of D11t62/D71t82≤2.400.
