Lens grooving device is a multipurpose apparatus for drilling, engraving and carving ophthalmic lenses. The apparatus comprises a base in which is mounted an electrical motor and a tool holder is connected to the shaft of the motor for detachably mounting a drilling, engraving or carving end mill above the upper surface of the base. A working support is also mounted on the upper surface of the base for maintaining and supporting the lenses in the various positions in which they must stand in order to be easily drilled, engraved or carved. The apparatus may advantageously be connected to a vacuum source for sucking out particles resulting from the drilling, carving or engraving operation through the small opening from which projects end mill and the upwardly expanding portion of the L-shaped tube. The apparatus may also comprise one or more lens guides adjustably mounted onto the guide holder for laterally guiding or retaining the lenses with respect to the end mill.
