Calamity Jane is noticing the Mr. McGoo glasses on reporter T.R.Again
and realizing that his eyesight must be quite distorted.

Differences of opinion emerged in the term "20/20 vision." Does the numerator refer to the distance in feet from which a person can reliably distinguish a pair of objects?

If the denominator is the distance from which a person with standard VA (Vision Ability) would be able to distinguish them; i.e. the distance at which their separation angle is 1 arc minute.

Twenty feet is essentially infinity from an optical perspective (the difference in optical power required to focus at 20 feet versus infinity is only 0.164 diopters). For that reason, 20/20 vision can be considered nominal performance for human distance vision.

A spokesperson for Mr T.R.Yagain - Blind Pew says to unravel the mystery the situation calls for a more hands on approach!


N.B. Our foreign editions will run: The metric equivalent is 6/6 vision where the distance is 6 meters. Blame Napoleon Bonaparte whydon’tya.

Excellent summary of vision thing but I can't see it without my glasses.
