For a normal eye, the far point is at infinity and the near point ofdistinct vision is about 25cm in front of the eye. The cornea of theeye provides a converging power of about 40 dioptres, and the leastconverging power of the eye-lens behind the cornea is about 20 dioptres. From this rough data estimate the range of accommodation(i.e., the range of converging power of the eye-lens) of a normal eye. |
