Hello,
Magnifying power is inversely proportional to the focal lenght so w e use lens of small focal length to get maximum magnification.
The magnifying power is more when focal length is short. A classic magnifying glass might have a focal length of 25 cm, comparing to an optical power of 4 dioptres.
Hope this information helps!!!
thank you.
