FYI - usually the number represents Diopters, which is the unit used
to express the power of a lens. It is the reciprocal of the focal
length expressed in meters.
A lens with a diopter of 10 would enable your eyes to easily focus at
1/10 meter (3.9 inches). One with 5 would work well at 1/5 meter (7.8
inches), etc.
