Formula and methodology
Formula: Optical power in diopters=1/focal length in metres=1000/focal length in millimetres.
The page performs the reciprocal conversion between focal length and optical power for a thin-lens sign-positive example.
This result follows the calculator's declared inputs, precision, validation boundaries, and model limits.
Input contract
- Focal length — minimum 1.0E-6; maximum 1000000
Worked example
| Input | Value |
|---|---|
| Focal length | 50 |
Optical power =20 D; focal length =0.05 m.
Assumptions and limits
- The focal length is positive and entered in millimetres.
- The thin-lens convention and metre-based diopter definition apply.
- Lens thickness, aberration, accommodation, refractive-index design, and prescription conventions are not modeled.
