Which of the following refractive errors is associated with the image given below?
- Presbyopia
- Astigmatism
- Hypermetropia
- Myopia
The Correct Option is D
Solution and Explanation
In ophthalmology, refractive errors are caused by the shape of the eye preventing light from focusing directly on the retina. Let's analyze the refractive error associated with the image.
Myopia, also known as nearsightedness, occurs when the eyeball is too long or the cornea is too curved. This causes light to focus in front of the retina, making distant objects appear blurry.
Thus, the correct refractive error associated with the image is Myopia.

- A concave-convex lens of refractive index 1.5 and the radii of curvature of its surfaces are 30 cm and 20 cm, respectively. The concave surface is upwards and is filled with a liquid of refractive index 1.3. The focal length of the liquid–glass combination will be:
- Given below are two statements : one is labelled as Assertion (A) and the other is labelled as Reason (R)
Assertion (A) : Refractive index of glass is higher than that of air.
Reason (R) : Optical density of a medium is directly proportionate to its mass density which results in a proportionate refractive index.
