Told to change it and use Irish word for this type of lens (9)
I believe the answer is:
varifocal
'told' is the definition.
The answer and definition are not the same part of speech. However, past participle verbs and adjectives sometimes mean the same thing.
I cannot understand how the rest of the clue works.
Can you help me to learn more?
I've seen this clue in The Irish Times.
Want a hint initially instead of a full solution?
