Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

The present invention provides an optical imaging lens. The optical imaging lens comprises six lens elements positioned in an order from an object side to an image side. Through controlling convex or concave shape of surfaces of the lens elements and designing parameters satisfying at least one inequality, the optical imaging lens may present a great angle of view with smaller surface area of the front side of the optical imaging lens.
