The magnification of an image when observed by the eye is the angular magnification M, which is defined by the ratio of the angle θimage subtended by the image to the angle θobject subtended by the object.

(a) With no convex lens, the object subtends an angle θobject from the eye. (b) With the convex lens in place, the image produced by the convex lens subtends an angle θimage from the eye, with θimage>θobject.
