Suppose that a person's lenses have a refractive power of 2.75 diopters that allow the person to focus on an object that is 25 cm from the eye. The glasses are 2.00 cm in front of the eyes. 
a) Is the close point of this person greater than or less than 57.0 cm? What is the distance from the near point when the glasses have a refractive power of 2.53 diopters? Explain   b) find the close point of this person.

A person's prescription for his new bifocal eyeglasses calls for a refractive power of -0.0600 diopters in the distance-vision part and a power of 1.05 diopters in the close-vision part. Assuming the glasses rest 2.00 cm from his eyes and that the corrected near-point distance is 25.0 cm, determine the near and far points of this person's uncorrected vision.

Contact lenses are placed on the eyeball, so the distance from the eye to an object (or an image) is the same as the distance from the lens to the object (or the image). If a person can see distant objects well, but has a nearpoint of 53.0 cm instead of the usual 25.0 cm, what power of contact lenses are needed (in diopters)? The same person now wants to wear glasses instead; they are 1.90 cm in front of...

Alyssa has always been mildly nearsighted, but as she’s gotten older, her eyes have lost some of their ability to accommodate to focus on close objects. She now has a far point of 2 m and a near point of 1 m; Alyssa needs a prescription for bifocals. The outer rim of her lenses will have a refractive power that will allow her to focus on distant objects; the center of her lenses will have a different refractive power that...
