Unit Definition (gnat's eye)
The gnat's eye is an idiomatic "unit" of distance; it's common to hear that something is "as small as a gnat's eye". In fact, the eyes of typical gnats tend to have diameters similar in size to a hair's breadth: roughly 100-150 micrometers (0.10-0.15 millimeters).

Unit Definition (mile [Roman, ancient])
A non metric unit of length; a statute mile, used for distances over land, is defined as 5280 ft.; a nautical mile, used for distances along the surface of the oceans, is defined as one minute of arc measured along the equator, which equals 6080.27 fit or 1.1516 statute miles.
