our eye has convex lens which has got the power of converging image . so when the light fall on the convex lens the sensory nerve of our eye immediately send electrical impulse to the mind then the mind make the clear and virtual image .or say when convex lens converge the falling light , the convex lens have a focus point which is retina at where all the light rays focused and images is formed .
