The lens used to correct long sightedness or hypermetropla.

The lens used to correct long sightedness or hypermetropla.

  • A. Convex lens
  • B. Concave lens
  • C. simple lens
  • D. Cylindrical lens

Step-by-step solution

Hypermetropia (long-sightedness) occurs when the eye focuses images behind the retina. A convex lens converges light rays before they enter the eye, thereby shifting the focal point forward onto the retina, correcting the defect.
