has to put her book 36cm from her face to be able to read.
Then, you tell her that is she is probably due for new glasses. You see her current prescription is + 0.8D.
a) Calculate the punctum proximum of your friend's eyes in cm.
b) So that she can read comfortably, you prescribe new glasses to her. Calculate the
these glasses in diopter.

Q2) Your husband Tom is able to see clearly objects lying 13cm to 171cm from his eyes. You want to
help him prescribe glasses.
a) Calculate the vergence of the glasses that correct his problem in diopters
b) What does he suffer from? Myopia, presbyopia or hyperopia?
c) When
your
