  In this work, we present a study of the void lensing signal or the excess
surface mass density (ESMD) around cosmic voids. First, we propose a new
void-finder algorithm that is designed to capture the ESMD around voids. We
compare our algorithm applied to projected slices with the ZOBOV void finder
and find significantly deeper weak-lensing profiles for voids defined by our
algorithm in the context of a realistic galaxy mock. Then we test the
consistency between the measurements of the ESMD as measured through the shear
of background galaxies and directly calculated through the dark matter density
profiles of the same voids. We found inconsistencies for voids with diameter
$\geq 100h^{-1}\mathrm{Mpc}$ along the line-of-sight, but the consistency holds
for smaller voids, meaning that we are indeed probing the underlying dark
matter field by measuring the shear around these voids. Moreover, we show that
voids found in the projected slices, which are highly sensitive to lensing, are
correlated to $3$D voids exhibiting intrinsic alignments between them.
