dioptre

This suggests that a UK university graduate with 17 years in education would, on average, be one dioptre more myopic than an individual who left school at 16 with 12 years of education.

To put this into context, a university graduate from the UK with 17 years of education would, on average, be at least 1 dioptre more myopic than someone who left school at 16 (with 12 years of education).

university graduate with 17 years of education would be at least −1 dioptre more myopic, on average, than someone who left school at age 16 with 12 years of education.

A rubber-coated body and eyecups, centre focusing wheel, dioptre adjustment, carry case, straps and cleaning cloth complete the finishing touches to a truly quality piece of equipment.

The reciprocal is 2.32 dioptres. Rounding it to the nearest 0.25, would suggest a 2.25 dioptre correction.

Findings suggest that a UK university graduate with 17 years in education would, on average, be one dioptre more myopic than someone who left school at 16 with 12 years of education, researchers explained.

The system takes about 30 seconds to analyse all parameters needed for the use of lenses featuring i.Scription technology, with accuracy to the nearest 1/100 dioptre.

Dr Monica Jong, science and business development manager at the Brien Holden Institute, explained: "The results of this research means that, if an eye care practitioner sees a child with myopia that is progressing by more than one dioptre per year, it gives us the opportunity to do something about it."
