M = h` = f _ (2)
h x
InKeratometer, the distance between the object and
the anterior surface of cornea are relatively large to
the focal length of the anterior corneal surface.
M = h` = f _ (3)
h d
The anterior surface of the cornea act as a mirror so
the radius of curvature of mirror equal the focal
length of it divided by two.
Thus f = r
