Abstract
Proposed is a lens system capable of providing, to a user, a high-definition image in which generation of concentric circles is reduced. The lens system has one or more Fresnel lenses. A lens surface of each of the Fresnel lenses has a plurality of grooves that is concentrically formed. Both a pitch which is the distance between two adjacent grooves and the depth of each of the plurality of grooves vary with the distance from an optical axis that passes through the center of the lens system.
