Abstract
It has been shown by various authors that gravomagnetic field can produce lensing effect. The effect of such a gravitational body with gravomagnetic mass on the trajectory of light ray is discussed in this paper. The light deflection angle has been calculated in the present works, considering upto fourth order terms. Schwarzschild light deflection angle can be obtained from this expression, by setting gravomagnetic mass equals to zero. However, for a hypothetical massless, gravomagnetic monopole, the light deflection angle does not reduce to zero.
