Using strong lensing data Milgrom's MOdified Newtonian Dynamics (MOND) or its covariant TeVeS (Tensor-Vector-Scalar Theory) is being examined here as an alternative to the conventional $\Lambda$CDM paradigm. We examine 10 double-image gravitational lensing systems, in which the lens masses have been estimated by stellar population synthesis models. While mild deviations exist, we do not find out that strong cases for outliers to the TeVeS theory.
