We study the effect of the cosmological constant $\ensuremath{\Lambda}$ on the bending of light by a concentrated spherically symmetric mass. Contrarily to previous claims, we show that, when the Schwarzschild-de Sitter geometry is taken into account, $\ensuremath{\Lambda}$ does indeed contribute to the bending.
