When the ciliary muscles are relaxed, the eye lens becomes thin, the focal length increases, and the distant objects are clearly visible to the eyes.
- To see the nearby objects clearly, the ciliary muscles contract making the eye lens thicker.
- Thus, the focal length of the eye lens decreases and the nearby objects become visible to the eyes.
- Hence, the human eye lens is able to adjust its focal length to view both distant and nearby objects on the retina.
- This ability is called the power of accommodation of the eyes.
