Explanation

Retina-

  1. The retina is a layer of photoreceptor cells and glial cells within the eye that collects incoming photons and transfers them to the brain as electrical and chemical signals via neural pathways.
  2. The distance between the eye lens and the retina for a person is 2cm, and the maximum focal length of the eye lens is 1.96cm.

Hence, option (C) is the correct answer.
