Question

a person's right eye is corrected to have the normal far point to affinity (1) by using a contact lens of power -0.25 D.
A) is this nearsighted, farsighted, or astigmatic
B) what is the eye's far point without he lens in place? a person's right eye is corrected to have the normal far point to affinity (1) by using a contact lens of power -0.25 D.

A) is this nearsighted, farsighted, or astigmatic
B) what is the eye's far point without he lens in place?

Explanation / Answer

since power is - negative, this must be a farsighted ness

------------------------

here object distasnce u = 25 cm

focal length = 1/P = 1/0.25 = 4m   = 400 cm

so

now use the relation for focal length as 1/f = 1/u +1/v

so

f = uv/(u-v)

f= 400 * 25/(400-25)

f = 26.67 cm
