उत्तर
As the student is not able to clearly see the words written on the blackboard that is at a distance of approximately 4 m from him, the student is suffering from the defect called myopia or near-sightedness. A myopic eye has its far point nearer than infinity. It forms the image of a distant object in front of its retina. To correct a myopic eye, concave lens of a suitable focal length is used. The image is allowed to form at the retina by using a concave lens of suitable power.
(i) A myopic eye
(ii) Correction of myopia using concave lens
