Refractive Error Sphere/Cylinder/Axis Calculator

Calculates spherical equivalent (SE = sphere + cylinder/2) from spectacle prescription components. Converts between plus and minus cylinder notation. Classifies refractive error: myopia (negative SE), hyperopia (positive SE), astigmatism (cylinder ≠0), and emmetropia (SE ≈ 0).
