Persons suffering from myopia are advised to use – (1) convex lens (2) concave lens (3) piano-convex lens (4) plano-concave lens

1 Answer

Answer :

(2) concave lens Explanation: A concave lens is used to correct short-sightedness (myopia). In myopia, images are formed in front of the retina, resulting in a blurred image. This occurs when the eye is relatively too long or the refractive powers of the cornea and lens of the eye are relatively too strong.
