Question

Read the following statements and choose the correct answer.
I: Assertion: In a hypermetropic eye, the light rays are focused on the back of the retina.
II: Reason: The light rays can be focused on to the retina by using a convex lens.

  1. Both I and II are incorrect
  2. Both I and II are correct, but II is not the correction for I
  3. None are correct
  4. Both I and II are correct, and II is the correction for I

hintHint:

Also called shortsightedness. Can be corrected with glasses so the image forms on the retina.

The correct answer is: Both I and II are correct, and II is the correction for I


    The correct option is d)Both I and II are correct, and II is the correction for I.
      • The definition of farsightedness is when the eye is shorter than normal or the cornea is too flat. This means that the light rays are focused behind the retina.
      • When a convex lens is used additionally, it converges the light rays into the eyes. Hence, focusing the image on to the retina.
