Dioptre:
- For measurement of the optical power of a curved mirror, the unit that uses is called a dioptre.
- Optical power is equal to the reciprocal of the focal length.
- Optical power is measured in metres.
- The dioptre is based on the SI-metric system.
- The SI unit of power of lens is dioptre whose focal length is one meter, which is denoted by the letter D.
- 1 dioptre (D) =
Where = focal length
