'''Lens Peak''' ({{coord|66|8|S|65|24|W|source:GNIS|display=inline,title}}) is a peak at the south side of [Holtedahl Bay](/source/Holtedahl_Bay) just east of [Conway Island](/source/Conway_Island), on the northeast coast of [Stresher Peninsula](/source/Stresher_Peninsula) on the west coast of [Graham Land](/source/Graham_Land), Antarctica. It was photographed by [Hunting Aerosurveys Ltd](/source/Hunting_Aerosurveys_Ltd) in 1956–57, and mapped from these photos by the [Falkland Islands Dependencies Survey](/source/Falkland_Islands_Dependencies_Survey). The peak was named by the [UK Antarctic Place-Names Committee](/source/UK_Antarctic_Place-Names_Committee) in 1960 from association with a group of features in the area commemorating pioneers of research on snow blindness and the design of snow goggles.<ref name=gnis/>
