Detailed Solution

The distance between retina and eye lens is 2.5 cm and most of refraction takes place by crystalline lens only then the minimum power of lens is 40 D and the maximum power of lens is 44 D.
Given, D=2.5cm,  (a) Minimum power of lens:
Power of accommodation 'D' can be calculated using formula:  D=1f
=>1f=1v-1u …(1)
Where, f=focal length  of lens
v=near point of normal person i.e.25 cm
u=given near point of person(i.e. 2.5 cm)
By substituting the values in equation(1) we get,
=>1f=12.5-125
=>1f=0.04 cm  
=> f =10.04 cm  or 
=>f= 0.025 m 
=> Power D=1f
=> D=10.025=40 D
 Minimum Power =40 D
(b)Maximum Power of lens:
Power of accommodation of normal person= 4 D
=>  Maximum Power =Minimum Power+Power of Accommodation 
=>Maximum power=40+4 
=> Maximum power= 44 D
