Solution

The correct option is C

convex lens


Cataract is the clouding or opacity of the normally clear lens of your eye. For people who have cataracts, seeing through cloudy lenses is a bit like looking through a frosty or fogged-up window. Clouded vision caused by cataracts can make it more difficult to read, drive a car (especially at night) or see the expression on a friend's face. Cataract can be corrected by surgical removing of the lens or by using spectacles with highly convex lenses, compensating for the missing lens, or in a newer technique, a small plastic lens is implanted behind or in front of the iris.
