Solution

The correct option is D
Thinner the lens i.e. (the central part of the lens), lesser is the deviation, as shown in the figure.

The centre of the lens is similar to a glass slab. The lens is made thin so that the deviation of light ray is negligible if it falls on the optical centre of the lens.
