The optical power of a lens is a measure of how much the lensbends light. The greater the optical power, the more the lensbends light.
Note that the optical power is the reciprocal of the focal lengthof the lens. The symbol for the optical power of a lens is P andthe unit for the optical power is dioptres and is designated by
the Greek symbol “”.

The optical power of a lens is the reciprocal of its focal length.
Study these examples:
f = 1 cm P = 1/0.01 m = 100 f = 2 cm P = 1/0.02 m = 50 f = 4 cm P = 1/0.04 m = 25 f = 8 cm P = 1/0.08 m = 12.5 f = 10 cm P = 1/0.1 m = 10 f = 25 cm P = 1/0.25 m = 4 f = 50 cm P = 1/0.50 m = 2 f = 100 cm P = 1/1 m = 1
Note that the optical power of a converging lensis positive and for a diverging lens it is negative.
