The video tutorial explains how to solve problems involving convergent and divergent lenses. It covers the use of the thin lens equation to find image distance, discusses the properties of real and virtual images, and calculates magnification. The tutorial also explains how to determine the power of a lens in diopters and illustrates the concepts with ray diagrams. The video concludes with a problem involving a divergent lens, highlighting the differences in image formation compared to a convergent lens.
