The first electron lenses — understood as "lenses made of electrons" rather than "lenses to focus electrons" — were envisioned in the mid-1990s and built in the early 2000s for compensation of beam-beam effects in the Tevatron proton-antiproton collider. Since then, the lenses — a novel instrument for high-energy particle accelerators — have been added to the toolbox of modern beam facilities, being particularly useful for the energy frontier superconducting hadron colliders ("supercolliders"). In this article we briefly present the history of ideas and developments toward effective use of low-energy high-current bright electron beams in high energy accelerators and discuss the promise of their future applications.
