Monocle, basically

Ross

I believe the answer is:

lens

'monocle basically' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for lens that I've seen before include "City of northern France: periscope part" , "Device to converge or diverge light" , "town in France" , "Transparent optical device" , "French town" .)

I've seen this clue in The New York Times.
