Amy has a near point at 45 cm and requires eyeglasses to correct her vision. [Answer in 3 significant figures] a) [6 pts] What should be the prescription (i.e. the lens power) for her eye? Note: Corrective lenses are available in increments in power of 0.25 diopters, e.g. +1.0, +1.25, +1.50,...,etc. Your answer must be divisible by 0.25 and the lenses should have the lowest power for which the new near point with the lens is no further than 25 cm. b) [6 pts] A 9.0 mm base curve (i.e. radius of curvature) will best fit her cornea. Using the material with index of refractive 1.422, what should be the radius of curvature for the other side of the lens? c) [8 pts] What is the new far point after wearing the contact lens
