The deflection of optical rays in the gravitational field of a massive disk is considered for different distances between the radiation source and the observer. It is shown that the homogeneous disk functions like an ideal collecting lens only for remote sources at distances greatly exceeding the disk size. If the source is situated close to the disk, the ray trajectories are similar to those in a uniform gravitational field.
