Least distance of distinct vision

In optometry, the least distance of distinct vision (LDDV) or the reference seeing distance (RSD) is the closest someone with "normal" vision (20/20 vision) can comfortably look at something. In other words LDDV is the minimum comfortable distance between the naked human eye and a visible object.


g power (M) of a lens with focal length (f in millimeters) when viewed by the naked human eye:

{M} = \frac{250}{f}.
