Photoshop: How to set different opacity on image from 100% to 40%?

Hello,
i am newbie. I have spent one day searching for solution and find nothing working...

Maybe i am searching for wrong keywords. I am sorry if this is stupid question.

Problem:
Photoshop 2017 CC
I am trying to re-create lenses for sunglasses and then put it on face.
I have cut out lenses from frame, changed color of lenses.
The goal is to make lenses (100% opacity)
with opacity continuously decreasing verticaly from 100% (upper part) to 40% (bottom part),
so bottom part will be semi-transparent and little of face will be visible via lenses.
I can not find settings which allow this.
I am able to change opacity of lenses only for whole lenses, not able to set decreasing opacity.

Any simple solution?
Thank You a lot!
Jenna

It is possible to decrease verticaly from 100% (upper part) to 40% (bottom part) ?

Take a look at screenshot below, click on right side Opacity Stop and set Opacity to 40%. Ensure that left side Opacity Stop is set to 100%.

Another option available to you is to use Gradient adjustment layer and to restrict gradient using layer mask.

Thank you for reply, but in your video i did not find where i can set opacity start at 100% and end with opacity at 40%.
Use a gradient tool and drag a line to side is lottery to set opacity from 100% to 40% and every time it is different...
