Solution

The correct option is A Fovea centralis
Fovea centralis is a central pit that is composed of closely packed cones. Since cones are the only thing present there, retina is most sensitive at this point. Fovea centralis enables us to have a centralized clear vision essential for reading.
So, option D is the correct option.
