Abstract

There are provided a lens, a zoom lens, and an imaging lens capable of eliminating blurriness of a ring zone without reducing resolution and increasing the number of steps of processing. A lens 1 has random unevenness within an optical effective diameter D of an optical surface 2 , an arithmetic mean roughness Ra within the optical effective diameter D of the optical surface 2 is 20 nm or more and 50 nm or less, and an average value of widths W of protrusion portions 3 of the unevenness on an average line C 2 of a roughness curve C 1 of the optical surface 2 is 1/200 or more and 1/50 or less of the optical effective diameter D of the optical surface 2 . The lens 1 is suitably used as a lens that composes a zoom lens or an imaging lens.
