1/f = 1/i + 1/o
1/f = 1/2 + 1/5 = 7/10
f = 10/7 meters
When you're looking at a near object, the light rays converge at a point behind the retina so the focal length of your eye increases so that the parallel rays of light converge on the back of the retina. Therefore, if you're looking from a near object to a far object, the focal length of your eye should decrease back to its normal, relaxed size.
Easy way: Use it to form an image of the sun or moon, and measure the distance of the image behind the lens. When the object is at infinity, the distance between the lens and the image is the focal length of the lens.
The focal length of the lens can be changed by the ciliary muscles in the eye due to which we can shift looking from a distant object to nearby object .
Sum of reciprocal of object distance and reciprocal of image distance gives the reciprocal of focal length
Convert the focal length to meters, then take the reciprocal. That is how the "power" of a lens is calculated.

1/object distance + 1/ image distance = 1/focal length

The focal length of the lens can be changed by the ciliary muscles in the eye due to which we can shift looking from a distant object to nearby object .
The image is formed behind the lens at a distance equal to the focal length. If the distance to the object is D1 and the focal length is F, then the distance D2 to the image is given by this equation: 1/D2 = 1/F - 1/D1
Focal length is related to the lens. It has nothing to do with how near or far the object is to the lens or objective.
it is the distance a lense is from an object in order for it to be in focus
Sum of reciprocal of object distance and reciprocal of image distance gives the reciprocal of focal length
