✔️ Myopia.
✔️ Hypermetropia.
✔️ Presbyopia.
Myopia is also known as near-sightedness. A person with Myopia can see nearby objects clearly but cannot see distant objects distinctly.
This defect arises due to :-
⏩ Excessive curvature of the eye lens.
⏩ Elongation of the eyeball.
This defect can be corrected by using a concave lens of suitable power.
Hypermetropia is also known as far-sightedness. A person with hypermetropia can see distant objects clearly but cannot see near by object distinctly.
This defect arises due to:-
⏩ The focal length of the eye lens is too long.
⏩ The eyeball has become too small.
This defect can be corrected by using a convex lens of appropriate power.
The power of accommodation of eyes usually decreases with ageing. They find it difficult to see nearby objects comfortably and distinctly without corrective eye-glasses. This defect is called Presbyopia.
This defect arises due to:-
⏩ Gradual weakening of ciliary muscles.
⏩ Diminishing flexibility of the eye lens.
This defect can corrected by using bi-focal lenses consists of both concave and convex lenses.
