Solution

The correct option is C Adjust the focal length of the lens

Accommodation is the adjustment of the optics of the eye to keep an object in focus and ensure that image forms on the retina as the distance of the object from the eye varies. This is achieved by change of shape of the lens and/or the eyeball.
