A particular nearsighted person is unable to see objects clearly when they are beyond 3.0 cm...
Goal Apply geometric optics to correct nearsightedness. Problem A particular nearsighted patient can't see objects clearly when they are beyond 24 cm (the far point of the eye). (a) What focal length should the prescribed contact lens have to correct this problem? (b) Find the power of the lens, in diopters. Neglect the distance between the eye and the corrective lens. Strategy The purpose of the lens in this instance is to take objects at infinity and create an image...
If Mark is unable to see objects clearly when they are placed beyond 0.5m away, (a) is he near-sighted or far-sighted? (b) What should be the focal length of a pair of contact lenses prescribed to correct this problem? (c) If instead he wears eye-glasses, and they are to sit 2.0cm in front of his eyes, what prescription should they be?
EXAMPLE 21.7 A certain person cannot see objects clearly when they are beyond a distance of 50 cm. What focal length should the prescribed lens have to correct this problem?
With his right eye a nearsighted person cannot see clearly objects more than 1.2 m away. (a) What kind of vision defect has the patient? (b) What should be the type of the lens to correct this eye? (c) Determine the optical power and focal length of the lens
A particular nearsighted patient can't see objects clearly beyond 19.7 cm from their eye. Determine the lens power required to correct the patient's vision and the type of lens required (converging or diverging). Neglect the distance between the eye and the corrective lens. HINT (a) the lens power required to correct the patient's vision (in diopters) diopters (b) the type of lens required (converging or diverging) O converging Odiverging
If Mark is unable to see objects clearly when they are placed beyond 0.5m away, (a) is he near-sighted or far-sighted? (b) If instead he wears eye-glasses, and they are to sit 2.0cm in front of his eyes, what prescription should they be?
A person can see clearly up close, but cannot focus on objects beyond 82.0cm . She opts for contact lenses to correct her vision. Part A Is she nearsighted or farsighted? Part B What type of lens (converging or diverging) is needed to correct her vision? Part C What focal-length contact lens is needed ?
A patient can't see objects closer than 32 cm and wishes to clearly see objects that are 18.3 cm from his eye. (a) Is the patient nearsighted or farsighted? (b) If the eye-lens distance is 1.92 cm, what is the minimum object distance p from the lens? in cm (c) What image position with respect to the lens will allow the patient to see the object? in cm (d) Is the image real or virtual? Is the image distance q...
Sometimes a person cannot clearly see objects close up or far away. To correct this type of vision, bifocals are often used. The top half of the lens is used to view distant objects and the bottom half of the lens is used to view objects close to the eye. A person can clearly see objects only if they are located between 36 cm and 160 cm away from her eyes. Bifocal lenses are used to correct her vision. What...
