Answer 1

The correct option is D He can see fine upto close distance, but distant objects are a blur

Myopia is the most common refractive error of the eye. It occurs when the eyeball is too long relative to the focusing power of the cornea and lens of the eye. This causes light rays to focus at a point in front of the retina, rather than directly on its surface. Such a person can see nearby objects clearly. However, far objects appear blurred to him.
