उत्तर
The figure shows a myopic eye, in which the eye lens is unable to focus the light rays coming from distant objects into the retina. In this defect, the image of a distant object is formed before the retina i.e., the light rays converge before the retina. Hence, to correct the defect a diverging lens (concave lens) of proper focal length is used, so that after refraction rays reach to retina and the person can see the image clearly.
