Unit 54: Vision Defects and their Correction
Q54.1) 25 cm
Q54.2) Infinity (there is no distance for which the building will blur)
Q54.3) a) Myopic
b) -0.5 D
Q54.4) a) Hyperopic
b) 2.75 D
Q54.5) No you won’t be successful. Lenses that correct myopia always have negative powers, which means they diverge light rather than focus it to a point.
