Answer:
A 'bifocal lens' is prescribed by the doctor to patients suffering from "weakening of ciliary muscles".
Explanation:
- Due to age-related gradual weakness of the 'ciliary muscles', the flexibility of adjusting and accommodating the eye lens to see objects at near and far distances diminishes.
- This diminishing accommodation leads to both "myopia and hypermetropia, or presbyopia".
- In order to correct both the defects, the bifocal accommodative intraocular lens that is both concave and convex are prescribed.
- Distant vision is done through the upper part of the glass and near vision through the lower part of the glasses.
- Progressive lenses that accommodate both visions progressively also can be used.
