Can diopters be converted to visual acuity?

0

A. While there is no precise relationship, anecdotal evidence suggests that moderate minus prescriptions can be converted to a rough estimate of visual acuity. Take your prescription in diopters, multiply by 100 and place under the numerator 20. For instance a prescription of -3.50 works out to an estimated acuity of 20/350. 11.
