How to make Clear Lens
To make Clear Lens, you'll need the following materials:
- Caroot Oil x3: Can be made at an Oil Presser with Caroot. You can collect Caroot seeds within the Edge Cliffs biome.
- Clear Glass x1: Can be made at a Furnace with Stone Dust and Coal. Coal ore can be mined in any biome and Stone Dust is made from Stone at a Grinder.

How to make Blue Lens
Blue Lens requires Blue Crystal to make. This grows within the Yellow Forest but is a hardier resource that requires the Spike Saw Power II upgrade to collect. Once you have access to the area and upgrade, you can make Blue Lens with the following materials:

How to make Yellow Lens
Yellow Lens is the rarest of the four to make due to its requirement of Yellow Crystal. Yellow Crystal solely grows on the Mountainside Coast and requires the Spike Saw Power III upgrade to harvest. As such, you'll also need to fully upgrade your Irrigation Hose to clear the biome first.
- Chromaize Oil x5: Can be made from Chromaize at an Oil Press. Chromaize Seeds grow within the Stepstone Peak biome.
