The ability to search images using Google Lens from the right-click menu is one of Chrome’s most useful features, but you might find that the “Search image with Google” option doesn’t appear when you right-click an image on a webpage.
While there doesn’t seem to be a universal toggle that controls Google Lens behavior inside Chrome, there are two troubleshooting steps that should fix the issue for you. If you can’t see the option to search an image with Google, begin by updating Google Chrome to the latest version – this ensures that you enjoy the latest and greatest that Google has to offer.
Another possible cause could be your search engine settings. We noticed that if you use anything other than Google as the default search provider on Chrome, the menu item to search images using Google Lens doesn’t appear. To change the default search engine, click on the three-dotted menu, navigate to “Search Engine” from the tab of options to the left, and choose Google as the default.
