I'm trying to create a magnifying glass effect in maya, I've been messing with convex and concave surfaces but I do not see how I can warp light to give the effect of a magnifying glass where the light warps. I know I can do this effect in 2d but I'm trying to figure out a way to do it with maya.

If anyone can help me I'd greatly appreciate it.

Give the dielectric material a shot.
