A person needs a lens of power – 2.5 dioptres for correcting his vision. Name the defect of vision he is suffering from. Which lens will he be using for the correction? Also find the focal length of the lens.
Given P=+ 1.5D
As P=1/f (in metre) ,
Focal length, f =1/P=1/1.5=0.667m=66.7cm
As power of prescribed lens is positive, the lens is converging (or convex) lens.
The defects of the eye due to which a person is unable to distinguish between certain colors is known as color blindness. Cone shaped retinal cells are responsible for making...
