Can virtual image be formed on the retina in a seeing process?
Answers
No, Virtual image cannot be formed on retina in a seeing process.
Reason :
1. As we have convex lens in eyes.. It forms real and inverted image on retina in seeing process.
2. When a person is suffering from eye defect like Myopia , with the help of a concave lens the eye defect is corrected. In this case virtual image of an object is formed.
The image thus formed is real and inverted.
Explanation:
- The retina functions as a mirror; it can only get real images on the screen.
- In the case of people with eye defects, the spectacles form the object's abstract image and the eye lens form the picture on the retina that is true and reversed.
Spectacles:- The contact lens lens is simply used to produce an image of the object at a position where it is clearly visible to the nearsighted person.
