Assume that the far point of a myopic (nearsighted) eye is 5.04 m in front of the eye. A lens is used to correct the vision, such that it can focus sharply an object at infinity. What is the power of the lens (in diopters; answer sign and magnitude)?

Answer:


P=-0.2D

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Far-point
v=-5.04m

Where

u=-\alpha

Generally the equation for Lens is mathematically given by


(1)/(f)=(1)/(v)-(1)/(u)


P=(1)/(-5.04)-(1)/(\alpha)


P=-0.2D
