Presbyopia is caused when the centre of the eye lens hardens making it unable to accommodate near vision. This condition generally affects almost everyone over the age of 50 - even those with myopia. Eyeglasses with bifocal or progressive lenses are prescribed to correct or imp..

A normal eye can see all objects over a wide range of distances i.e., from 25 cm to infinity. But due to certain abnormalities the eye is not able see objects over such a wide range of distances and such an eye is said to be defective. Some of the defec..

Working of an Eye - The light coming from an object enters the eye through cornea and pupil. The eye lens converges these light rays to form a real, inverted and diminished image on the retina. The light sensitive cells of the retina gets activated with the incidence o..

Introduction - You have studied in the previous chapter about refraction of light by lenses and also about the nature, position and relative size of images formed by lenses. How can these ideas help us in the study of the human eye? The human eye uses light and enables us to see..

">Refractive Errors or Defects of Vision The abnormalities in the normal vision of the eye due to the change in focal length of the lens or due to the deformation of cornea are known as refractive errors or defects of vision. Myopia Myopia is an eye defe..

You must have seen middle aged people holding a book away from their eyes to read properly. This is because they are not able to see the nearby objects clearly. We say that those people are suffering from hypermetropia (long sightedness). Hypermetropia or hyperopia is the defect..
