Concept Explanation
 

Power of Lens

The ability of a lens to converge or diverge light rays is called power (P) of the lens. It is defined as the reciprocal of focal length,If the length of a lens is measured in meters (m) than its reciprocal gives the power of the lens.

P=frac{1}{f}       

 = focal length measured in meters 

P = Power of the lens measured in diopter (D).
