Not all that cluey on it myself. But I think it go's something like this: The lens is there to correct a sperical mirror. In order for a mirror to work sucessfully, it most be parabolic. The lens corrects for this, turning it into a parobolic? Hey janoskiss, is this right mate?
I'm only guessing here, lol.
