In this paper, we design single and symmetrical double lenses with DOE. The specifications are the following : Image area is 4.8 mm $\times$ 3.6 mm, F/# is 2.8 and the overall length (from first lens surface to image plane) is 6.8mm. After comparing the optical performance and characteristic values, we determine that symmetrical double lenses are superior to single lenses. Symmetrical double lenses have the merits of fewer zones, weaker flare, and smaller distortion than single lenses.
