Hii mate!!
Here's your answer.
Solution -:Myopic eye needs concave lens.
Given, v=-80cm
u=infinte
Using lens formula, 1/F=1/v -1/u
1/F=-1/80 -1/infinite
1/F=-1/80 - 0
1/F=-1/80
F= -80cm=-0.8m
As power =1/F
p= -1/0.8
p= -1.25D
Hope it helps you.

Given, distance of far point x = 80 cm
To view distant objects correctly, focal length of the corrective lens, f = -x = -80cm
Power of the lens P (in meters) = (1/ -0.8) = -1.25D
The lens is concave of power = -1.25D
