Dioptre in a sentence as a noun

Beyond the age of 20-25 people go decades without having to change their glasses due to changed dioptres.

Depth perception still works fine at relatively high dioptre numbers, so you can usually avoid walking into stuff.

Also, it would probably be possible to use lenses in the glasses with a certain dioptre strength applied, so that people could use those instead of their regular glasses.

The refractive index of the eye varies according to light frequency such that blue is focused approximately 2 dioptres more than red.

That seems problematic, how is normal vision defined?With dioptres, the definition is very clear and based on optical properties of the eye.

The spherical correction was weakened by half a dioptre, leaving the cylindrical correction unchanged.

Even then, after measuring your absolute dioptres, a human asks you to try a few combinations to find the most comfortable variant.
