I don't think this project has you printing lenses- it wouldn't really make sense. It's very time consuming to print lenses. If you are going to do this, it makes more sense to print a mold and then cast resin (even then, this only really makes sense if you need a highly custom shape and are making multiple copies). See https://www.instructables.com/Making-Custom-Lenses/ https://formlabs.com/blog/creating-camera-lenses-with-stereo... https://www.instructables.com/Resin-Casting-Lenses/ i would use UV-resistant epoxy casting.
