	You would do well to wait for the non dominant eye to be at this standard as well, (see [[ocular dominance]]).

With that consideration, it is a good idea to make sure the 20/20 holds for at least a week if not 2 before reducing.

	In general, you only want to reduce '''0.25 diopters from a full, 20/20 prescription'''. The 20/20 standard indicates that you can consistently read the 20 foot or 6 meter line (half or better correct) on the [[Snellen chart]] from that distance in reasonably good indoor lighting without [[active focus]]. If your set up only allows for a 10 foot or 3 meter chart keep in mind that this isn't quite as accurate, you can account for this by increasing your standard to a fairly clear 100 percent of the 20/20 line.
