There are three types of reductions with respect to the power change:
There are three types of reductions with respect to the power change:
* a 0.25 [[diopter]] drop to [[spherical]] power
* a 0.25 [[diopter|D]] drop to [[spherical]] power
* a 0.25 D drop to [[cylindrical]] power
* a 0.25 D drop to [[cylindrical]] power
* a trade of 0.5 D cylindrical power for 0.25 spherical power
* a trade of 0.5 D cylindrical power for 0.25 D spherical power
