In lens_convergent

The focus is defined as

focus_1 = (refraction_index - 1) * (
            1 / radius1 - 1 / radius2) - thickness / (radius1 * radius2)

Shouldn’t it be

focus_1 = (refraction_index - 1) * ((1 / radius1 - 1 / radius2) - (refraction_index - 1)*thickness / (refraction_index * radius1 * radius2))

? See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lens#Lensmaker's_equation

Thank you
