Solution

The correct option is C Ciliary muscles
A. Suspensory ligaments attach the eye lens with the ciliary body.
B. Ciliary muscles change the shape of eye lens to focus on nearby and distant objects.
C. Pupil is an aperture in eye through which light enters the eye.
D. Iris is pigmented and opaque structure of eye which controls the amount of light entering the eye by changing the size of pupil.
If a student has problem in reading, this means his eye lens is not able to focus on the alphabets and this is due to inability of the ciliary muscles to contract.
So, the correct answer is 'Ciliary muscles'.
