Question

1. For three people, their eyeglass prescriptions specify the following: +3D, -3D and bifocals. These three people are, respectively

A. Hyperopic, myopic, presbyopic B. Astigmatic, myopic, presbyopic C. Myopic, presbyopic, hyperopic D. None of the above

2.

The far point of a near-sighted person

is usually closer than 25 cm from the eye

is at infinity

is usually farther than 25 cm from the eye but less than infinity

is 25 cm from the eye

3.

As a person ages, their eyelenses become less and less able to squeeze themselves into the proper shape needed to bring light from nearby sources into a focus on the retina. This occurs because

The eyelens changes shape as we age

The index of refraction of the eyelens becomes smaller as we age

Additional layers form on the eyelens, insulating it from the vitreous humor liquid and making it less flexible

The eyelens moves farther into the eye as we age
