Abstract Optical imaging systems have greatly extended human visual capabilities, enabling the observation and understanding of diverse phenomena. Imaging technologies span a broad spectrum wavelengths from x-ray to radio frequencies impact research activities our daily lives. Traditional glass lenses are fabricated through series complex processes, while polymers offer versatility ease production. However, modern applications often require lens assemblies, driving need for miniaturization advanced designs with micro- nanoscale features surpass capabilities traditional fabrication methods. Three-dimensional (3D) printing, or additive manufacturing, presents solution these challenges benefits rapid prototyping, customized geometries, efficient production, particularly suited miniaturized optical devices. Various 3D printing methods demonstrated advantages over counterparts, yet remain in achieving resolutions. Two-photon polymerization lithography (TPL), technique, enables intricate structures beyond diffraction limit via nonlinear process two-photon absorption within liquid resin. It offers unprecedented abilities, e.g. alignment-free fabrication, prototyping almost arbitrary nanostructures. In this review, we emphasize importance criteria performance evaluation devices, discuss material properties relevant TPL, techniques, highlight application TPL imaging. As first panoramic review on topic, it will equip researchers foundational knowledge recent advancements optics, promoting deeper field. By leveraging its high-resolution capability, extensive range, true processing, alongside advances materials, design, envisage disruptive solutions current promising incorporation future applications.
