उत्तर

(a) Anuja is suffering from a defect of vision called myopia (Near sightedness)
(b) The possible reason for her defect is the distance between the eye lens and retina increases as the eyeball is lengthened or lens is curved.
(c) It is corrected using spectacles having concave lenses of appropriate power.

Myopia and hypermetropia can be corrected by:


Assertion: Myopia is the defect of vision in which a person cannot see distant objects clearly.

Reason: This due to eye-ball being too short.


Assertion: Concave mirrors are used as reflectors in torches, vehicle head lights and in search lights.

Reason: When an object is placed beyond the center of curvature of a concave mirror, the image formed is real and inverted.
