Answer:

The reciprocal of focal length is the power of the lens.

Explanation:

What is the power of lenses?

  • The power of the lens is equal to the reciprocal of focal length. It is measured in a unit called dioptre.
  • The power of a concave lens is negative.
  • The power of a convex lens is positive.
  • Myopia or nearsightedness is corrected using a concave lens. Thus, the power of glasses for myopia is given in negative.
  • Hypermetropia or longsightedness is corrected using a convex lens. Thus, the power of glasses for myopia is given in positive.
