Nearsightedness and Farsightedness
A person with normal vision can focus on objects as close as a few centimeters from the
eye up to objects infinitely far away. There exist, however, certain conditions under which
the range of vision is not so extended. For example, a nearsighted person cannot focus on
objects farther than a certain point (the far point), while a farsighted person cannot focus on
objects closer than a certain point (the near point). Note that even though the presence of a
near point is common to everyone, a farsighted person has a near point that is much farther
from the eye than the near point of a person with normal vision.
Both nearsightedness and farsightedness can be corrected with the use of glasses or
contact lenses. In this case, the eye converges the light coming from the image formed by
the corrective lens rather than from the object itself.
▾ Part A
When glasses (or contact lenses) are used to correct nearsightedness, where should the corrective lens form an image of an object located at infinity in order for the eye to form a clear image of that object?
▸ View Available Hint(s)
The lens should form the image at the near point.
The lens should form the image at the far point.
The lens should form the image at a point closer to the eye than the near point.
The lens should form the image at a point farther from the eye than the far point
