Question

Anuj's Opthalmologist prescribed him to wear spectacles with power
+0.24. What could be the probable reason for it? *
Curvature of eye lense increases
distance between lens and retina decreases
O flattening of eye ball
⚪O Curvature of eyeball decreases​

Answer 1

The distance between lens and retina decreases.

Explanation:

• As Anuj's Ophthalmologist prescribed him to wear spectacles with power  +0.24, he was suffering from hypermetropia.
• This can be determined by the sign of the eyesight. If it is (+), he/she is suffering from hypermetropia. If it is (-), he/she is suffering from myopia.
• Hypermetropia is the eye condition where one can see the faraway objects present in the eyesight clearly, but cannot be able to see the ones that are nearer. Simply, it defines the long-sightedness.
• If the distance between the eye lens and the retina decreases due to the flattening or shortening of the lens, the focal length of the eye lens increases causing hypermetropia.
• This can be corrected by wearing the convex lens of suitable focal length.
