Visual Acuity: What is 20/20 Vision?
20/20 vision is a term used to express normal visual acuity (the clarity or
sharpness of vision) measured at a distance of 20 feet. If you have 20/20
vision, you can see clearly at 20 feet what should normally be seen at that
distance. If you have 20/100 vision, it means that you must be as close as 20
feet to see what a person with normal vision can see at 100 feet.
