1The Human Eye and the Colourful Worldshort-answer
Which lens corrects myopia? Explain how it helps a person see distant objects clearly.
Answer
A concave lens corrects myopia by diverging incoming rays so that the eye lens forms the image on the retina.
Solution
In myopia, distant images form in front of the retina. A suitable concave lens reduces the converging power of the eye system and shifts the image back onto the retina.
