mercekli

Mercekli is a Turkish adjective meaning “having a lens” or “lensed.” It is formed from mercek, meaning lens, plus the suffix -li, which denotes possession or association. The word is used to describe objects that incorporate a lens or perform a magnifying function.

In practice, mercekli is commonly found in technical or descriptive phrases such as mercekli kamera (a camera with a lens), mercekli gözlük (glasses with lenses), or mercekli mikroskop (a microscope equipped with lenses). It can also describe non-physical concepts in a metaphorical sense, characterizing a focused or magnified view of a subject in a text.

The term functions primarily as a descriptor rather than a noun; it modifies nouns and does not typically stand alone as a name. It is most often encountered in Turkish-language contexts related to science, electronics, optics, or product specifications, where precise description of lens-based devices is needed.
