Term
Definition
show when light rays pass from one medium to another,their velocity or speed of transmission changes, and the rays are bent or refracted.  
🗑
show the ability of the eye to focus deferentially for objects of near vision (less than 6 m, or 20 feet)  
🗑
show the image formed on the retina as a result of the refractory activity of the len  
🗑
show eye is able to accommodate properly. visual problem may result -from lenses that are too strong or too lazy (overconverging or underconverging, respectively). -  
🗑
show near sightedness. the image normally focuses in front of the retina. a person can see close object without difficulty. correction require a concave lens which causes the light reaching the eye to diverge.  
🗑
Hyperopia   show
🗑
show irregularities in the curvatures of the lens and/or the cornea lead to a blurred vision problem. Correction--cylindrically ground lenses which compensate the inequality in the curvature.  
🗑
show difficulty in focusing for near or close vision due to decreasing of elasticity of the lens. can be tested by near point of accommodation.  
🗑
visual acuity   show

In farsightedness the light is focus_______ the retin   show
🗑

🗑
