Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the Defect**: - The person is unable to see far-off objects clearly, which indicates a vision problem known as **myopia** or **nearsightedness**. In myopia, the eye focuses images in front of the retina instead of directly on it. 2. **Understanding Myopia**: - Myopia occurs when the eyeball is too long or the cornea has too much curvature. This causes light rays to converge before they reach the retina, resulting in blurred vision for distant objects. ...
