In a lens module assembly method, a lens holder is placed in a receiver. The lens holder has a nest. A lens element is deposited in the lens holder. During the depositing, the lens element seats in the nest, if the lens element is in a forward-facing orientation. Entry of the lens element into the nest is interrupted, if the lens element is in a rearward-facing orientation.
