Difference between Lens (anatomy) and Visual acuity

Lens (anatomy) vs. Visual acuity

The lens is a transparent, biconvex structure in the eye that, along with the cornea, helps to refract light to be focused on the retina. Visual acuity (VA) commonly refers to the clarity of vision.

Similarities between Lens (anatomy) and Visual acuity

Lens (anatomy) and Visual acuity have 12 things in common (in Unionpedia): Camera lens, Cataract, Cornea, Diabetes mellitus, Dioptre, Encyclopædia Britannica, Eye, Human eye, Light, Presbyopia, Retina, Visual perception.

Camera lens

A camera lens (also known as photographic lens or photographic objective) is an optical lens or assembly of lenses used in conjunction with a camera body and mechanism to make images of objects either on photographic film or on other media capable of storing an image chemically or electronically.

Cataract

A cataract is a clouding of the lens in the eye which leads to a decrease in vision.

Dioptre

A dioptre (British spelling) or diopter (American spelling) is a unit of measurement of the optical power of a lens or curved mirror, which is equal to the reciprocal of the focal length measured in metres.

Presbyopia

Presbyopia is a condition associated with the aging of the eye that results in progressively worsening ability to focus clearly on close objects.
