Question 2:
A person with a myopic eye cannot see objects beyond 1.2 m distinctly. What
should be the type of the corrective lens used to restore proper vision?
Answer:
The person is able to see nearby objects clearly, but he is unable to see objects
beyond 1.2 m. This happens because the image of an object beyond 1.2 m is
formed in front of the retina and not at the retina, as shown in the given figure.
To correct this defect of vision, he must use a concave lens. The concave lens will
bring the image back to the retina as shown in the given figure.
