The Google Lens overlay in Chrome replaces the traditional “Search Google for image” option with a visual search panel, which many find distracting.
To disable it, open Chrome and go to chrome://flags/, search for “Lens overlay,” set it to Disabled, then click Relaunch to apply.
For managed environments (like in Google Workspace), admins can turn off Lens overlay for all users via the Admin Console under Devices › Chrome › Settings › Users & browsers.
Disabling Lens restores the traditional image‑search behavior and helps avoid confusion
