उत्तर
Since the near point of the eye is 50 cm which is greater than 25 cm, a person is suffering from hypermetropia.
Object distance (u) = - 25cm
Image distance (v) = - 50cm
Using lens formula
`1/"f" = 1/"v" - 1/"u"`
`1/"f" = 1/(-50) - 1/(-25)`
`1/"f" = -1/50 + 1/25`
`1/"f" = (-1+2)/50`
`1/"f" = 1/50`
`"f"` = +50 cm
Since the focal length of the lens is positive, corrective lens required is convex lens.
`"f"` = +50cm
`"f"` = +0.5m
Power (P) of corrective lens will be
`"P" = 1/("f"("m"))`
`"P" = 1/0.5`
`"P" = + 2 "D"`
