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?

Question:

Answer:

Concave lens.

Power of lens P = 1/f

P = 1/(-1.2)

P = - 10/12 (for concave lens)

Therefore, P = –0.83 D

Why do planets not twinkle?

Why are normal eyes not able to see clearly objects placed closer than 25 cm?

Make a diagram to show how hypermetropia is corrected. The near point of a hypermetropic eye is 1 m. What is the power of the lens required to correct this defect? Assume that the near point of the normal eye is 25 cm.

The far point of a myopic person is 80 cm in front of the eye. What is the nature and power of the lens required to correct the problem?

A person needs a lens of power –5.5 dioptres for correcting his distant vision. For correcting his near vision, he needs a lens of power +1.5 dioptre. What is the focal length of the lens required for correcting : (i) distant vision, and (ii) near vision?

The change in focal length of an eye lens is caused by the action of the : (a) pupil (b) retina. (c) ciliary muscles. (d) iris.

The least distance of distinct vision for a young adult with normal vision is about (a) 25 m (b) 2.5 cm (c) 25 cm (d) 2.5 m

The human eye forms the image of an object at its : (a) cornea (b) iris (c) pupil (d) retina

The human eye can focus on objects at different distances by adjusting the focal length of the eye lens. This is due to : (a) presbyopia (b) accommodation (c) near-sightedness (d) far-sightedness

A student has difficulty reading the blackboard while sitting in the last row. What could be the defect the child is suffering from? How can it be corrected?
