The work of the lens is accumulating the parallel beam at its focus, when the lens is at the center, like in the image the most parallel beam reach to the lens and the lens focus the most beam at the center,but if you move the lens up or down the lens can not gather intensity or parallel beam as befor,and we see the corner of the diffraction pattern, so because the most parallel beam exist.
