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.
Top Questions on Optics
- Name the type of lenses required by the persons for the correction of their defect of vision called presbyopia. Write the structure of the lenses commonly used for the correction of this defect giving reason for such designs.
- A double convex lens of glass has both faces of the same radius of curvature 17 cm. Find its focal length if it is immersed in water. The refractive indices of glass and water are 1.5 and 1.33 respectively.
A slanted object AB is placed on one side of convex lens as shown in the diagram. The image is formed on the opposite side. Angle made by the image with principal axis is:
- A convex lens of focal length 10 cm, a concave lens of focal length 15 cm, and a third lens of unknown focal length are placed coaxially in contact. If the focal length of the combination is +12 cm, find the nature and focal length of the third lens, if all lenses are thin. Will the answer change if the lenses were thick?
- A point source is placed at the bottom of a tank containing a transparent liquid (refractive index \( n \)) to a depth H. The area of the surface of the liquid through which light from the source can emerge out is:
