Solution

The correct option is B Hypermetropia
$H y p e r m e t r o p i a$ or long-sightedness is a defect in the vision, in which the person can see distant objects clearly but cannot see the nearby objects distinctly.
The rays coming from an object placed at normal near point do not meet at the retina but at a point behind the retina.

Hence, the correct answer is OPTION C.
