    There is no correlation between your Rx and what is called visual acuity. Some people can be corrected to 20/20 with strong prescriptions others cannot be corrected to 20/20 even with lesser prescriptions. If you want to know what your visual acuity is, then call your optometrist. They will have it listed in your chart.
