4)Aseverely nearsighted person needs corective lenses. In one eye, this person can focus on objects over a range from as close as 15.8cm to as far away as 69.1cm. A) What strength (in diopters) contact lens would correct the vision in this eye? B) If instead of contact lenses, this person were to get glasses, the lenses of the glasses will sit a distance of 1.9 cm from the persons eye. What strength lens (in diopters) would be needed for glasses to correct vision in this eye?

    Background information A person with normal vision can focus on objects as close as a few centimeters from the eye up to objects infinitely far away. There exist, however, certain conditions under which the range of vision is not so extended. For example, a nearsighted person cannot focus on objects farther than a certain point (the far point), while a farsighted person cannot focus on objects closer than a certain point (the near point). Note that even though the presence...

    With a near point of 15.0 cm, a nearsighted professor can focus on relatively nearby objects. Yet, with a far point 62.0 cm out, he cannot clearly see distant objects without optical ald. (a) Calculate the focal length (in cm) of a contact lens that would enable this professor to clearly view very distant objects. (Hint: Allow p to approach Infinity in the thin-lens equation). (b) What power (in diopters) describes this contact lens? diopters (c) When this contact lens...

    A person can see clearly up close, but cannot focus on objects beyond 82.0cm . She opts for contact lenses to correct her vision. Part A Is she nearsighted or farsighted? Part B What type of lens (converging or diverging) is needed to correct her vision? Part C What focal-length contact lens is needed ?

    An optometrist tests a person and finds that without glasses, he needs to have his eyes 15.0 cm from a book to read comfortably and can focus clearly only on distant objects up to 2.75 m away, but no farther. A typical normal eye should be able to focus on objects that are between 25.0 cm (the near point) and infinity (the far point) from the eye. (a) What type of correcting lenses does the person need: single focal length...

  • A nearsighted person has a far point of 21.5cm and is prescribed contact lenses to correct her vision

    A nearsighted person has a far point of 21.5cm and is prescribed contact lenses to correct her vision. What lens strength (a.k.a., lens power), in Diopters, should be prescribed? Give your answer using the usual convention of positive values for converging lenses and negative values for diverging lenses. Please enter a numerical answer below. Accepted formats are numbers or "e" based scientific notation e.g. 0.23, -2, 146, 5.23e-8

    Sometimes a person cannot clearly see objects close up or far away. To correct this type of vision, bifocals are often used. The top half of the lens is used to view distant objects and the bottom half of the lens is used to view objects close to the eye. A person can clearly see objects only if they are located between 36 cm and 160 cm away from her eyes. Bifocal lenses are used to correct her vision. What...
