Question

Assertion (A): Myopic eye cannot see distant objects distinctly.
Reason (R): For the correction of myopia converging lenses of appropriate power are prescribed by eye-surgeons.

• A. Both (A) and (R) are true and (R) is the correct explanation of (A).
• B. Both (A) and (R) are true, but (R) is not the correct explanation of (A).
• C. (A) is true, but (R) is false.
• D. (A) is false, but (R) is true.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is C

Myopia (near-sightedness) is corrected using diverging lenses, not converging lenses. The diverging lens helps focus distant objects on the retina, correcting the defect.
