The space between the lens and the cornea of the human eye is

For a normal eye, the far point is at infinity and the near point of distinct vision is about 25 cm in front of the eye. The cornea of the provides a converging power of about 40 dioptre and the least converging power of eye lens behind the cornea is about 20 dioptre . From this rough data, estimate the range of accommodation (i.e., the range of converging power of the eye lens) of a normal eye.
