Claim:
A silicone resin lens obtained by molding and curing a silicon resin composition into a lens, wherein the lens has a refractive index at 400 nm of 1.5 or more, a ratio of a refractive index at 400 nm to a refractive index at 596 nm of 1.01 or more, an Abbe's number of 45 or more, and an absolute value of a differential of refractive indexes against temperatures, dn/dT, of 250×10 −6 /degrees C. or less, wherein the silicon resin composition comprises (A) an alkenyl group-containing organopolysiloxane represented by the following average compositional formula (1): (R 2 SiO 1.5 ) a (R 1 k R 2 p SiO) b (R 1 q R 2 r SiO 0.5 ) c (1) wherein R 1 is an alkenyl group having 2 to 8 carbon atoms, R 2 is a substituted or unsubstituted monovalent hydrocarbon group which is not an alkenyl group, k and p are an integer of 0, 1 or 2, provided that a total of k and p is 2, q is an integer of from 1 to 3 and r is an integer of from 0 to 2, provided that a total of q and r is 3, a, b and c are the numbers which satisfy the molar ratio equations, (b+c)/a=0.01 to 1, and c/a=0.05 to 3, and 10 to 80% of a total molar amount of the groups represented by R 1 and R 2 is a cycloalkyl group, (B) an organohydrogenpolysiloxane having at least two hydrogen atoms each bonded to a silicon atom in an amount such that the amount of the hydrogen atoms is 0.75 to 2.0 equivalents per equivalent of the alkenyl groups of component (A), and (C) a catalytic amount of a curing catalyst.
