What is 20/20 vision? Diopters to 20/20 vision conversion
A 20/20 vision means you can clearly see an object standing 20 feet away from you. This score describes a "normal" vision instead of a "perfect" one and is a measure of visual acuity.
In this sense, a 20/40 vision would mean that you need to be 20 feet away from an object in order to see it, whereas people with "normal" vision would see this object in detail from 40 feet away.
The prescription lenses are rated using diopters which is a measure of the optical power of a lens. You can check the relation between diopters and your vision score below:
Diopters | Snellen score |
---|---|
0.00 | 20/20 |
-1.00 | 20/40 |
-2.00 | 20/80 |
-3.00 | 20/150 |
-4.00 | 20/300 |
-5.00 | 20/400 |
💡 Our 20/20 vision for 2020 calculator will tell how likely you are to need to increase your prescription lenses rating based on your lifestyle.
