Abstract

Present embodiments provide for an optical imaging lens. The optical imaging lens may comprise five lens elements positioned sequentially from an object side to an image side. By controlling the convex or concave shape of the surfaces of the lens elements and designing parameters satisfying at least one inequality, the view angle of the optical imaging lens may be increased to achieve better optical characteristics.
