In Myopia the human eye _______.
What are the causes of ‘Myopia’?
Differentiate the eye defects: Myopia and Hypermetropia
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.
