Did anybody try yet to use #fusion360 or a less shitty program to do #CNC work on glass and lenses?

I carefully did try it a few months back on a microscope slide first with a carving tool, which suprizingly worked very well and also with a diamond dust? coated tip. you know these dremel polishing and sanding tools. That also worked pretty well and i was able to carve out a small rectangular chamber on the microscope slide.

What i want to do is to modify the shape of a #lens, specifically a zinc selenide lens for thermal imaging. While it is originally a co2 laser focusing lens it magnifies objects close by quite well but of course i want higher magnification and not pay a fortune for long IR lenses from thorlabs.

As i rather would like to not waste the two lenses i have for testing, i want to simulate first if the shape i want to make would actually work.

I obviously have no previous experience in designing lenses.

any idea or hint is highly welcome!
