Google Lens allows you to take a picture and ask Google what it is. It interacts with the text and object within the image and provides further information about it. However, sometimes it fails to show the desired result as compared to a regular image search on Google.
The Seach Image with Google option shows you a series of pictures related to your search along with a few relevant images. Oftentimes, Google Lens can fail to do this.
