Lens module
A lens module may include a first lens having positive refractive power; a second lens having positive refractive power; a third lens having negative refractive power; a fourth lens having refractive power; a fifth lens having refractive power; a sixth lens having negative refractive power; and a seventh lens having refractive power and one or more inflection points formed in locations thereof not crossing an optical axis, wherein the first lens, the second lens, the third lens, the fourth lens, the fifth lens, the sixth lens and the seventh lens are disposed in a sequential order from the first lens to the seventh lens.
1. A lens module comprising:
a first lens having a positive refractive power;
a second lens having a positive refractive power;
a third lens having a negative refractive power;
a fourth lens having a negative refractive power;
a fifth lens having a refractive power;
a sixth lens having a positive refractive power; and
a seventh lens having a refractive power, a convex object-side surface in an optical axis region, and one or more inflection points spaced away from an optical axis of the lens module on either one or both of an object-side surface of the seventh lens and an image-side surface of the seventh lens,
wherein the first lens, the second lens, the third lens, the fourth lens, the fifth lens, the sixth lens, and the seventh lens are sequentially disposed in ascending numerical order along the optical axis from an object side of the lens module toward an image side of the lens module, and
wherein a thickness at an optical axis center of the seventh lens is greater than a thickness at an optical axis center of the second lens.

4. The lens module of claim 1 , wherein an object-side surface of the second lens is convex in an optical axis region thereof, and an image-side surface of the second lens is convex in an optical axis region thereof.
5. The lens module of claim 1 , wherein an image-side surface of the third lens is concave in an optical axis region thereof.
6. The lens module of claim 1 , wherein an object-side surface of the sixth lens is concave in an optical axis region thereof, and an image-side surface of the sixth lens is convex in an optical axis region thereof.
7. The lens module of claim 1 , wherein an image-side surface of the seventh lens is concave in an optical axis region thereof.
8. The lens module of claim 1 , wherein V1−V3>20 is satisfied, where V1 is an Abbe number of the first lens, and V3 is an Abbe number of the third lens.
9. The lens module of claim 1 , wherein V2−V3>20 is satisfied, where V2 is an Abbe number of the second lens, and V3 is an Abbe number of the third lens.
10. The lens module of claim 1 , wherein f1>f2 is satisfied, where f1 is a focal length of the first lens, and f2 is a focal length of the second lens.
11.
