Make a diagram to show how hypermetropia is corrected. The near point of a hypermetropic eye is `1 metre`. What is the power of the lens required to correct this defect ? Assume that the near point of the normal eye is `25 cm`.

To solve the problem of correcting hypermetropia and finding the power of the lens required, we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand Hypermetropia Hypermetropia, or farsightedness, is a condition where distant objects can be seen clearly, but close objects appear blurry. In a hypermetropic eye, the image of a near object is formed behind the retina. ### Step 2: Identify Given Data - Near point of hypermetropic eye (D) = 1 meter = 100 cm - Near point of normal eye (N) = 25 cm ...
