The near point of a patient's eye is 44.2 cm. (a) What should be the refractive power ℛ of a corrective lens prescribed to enable the patient to clearly see an object at 21.0 cm? ℛ = dpt (b) When using the new corrective glasses, the patient can see an object clearly at 24.4 cm but not at 21.0 cm. By how many diopters did the lens grinder miss the prescription? dpt
