Why should the lens of a normal eye be fatter to look at near objects and thinner to look at distant objects?

The muscles around the lens of your eye push and pull it thicker and thinner to focus your eye on an object depending on the distance from your eye to the object. The focal length of a fat lens is shorter than the focal length of a thin lens (the light rays are bent more sharply) When you focus binoculars, you are adjusting their focal length

How does a concave lens correct nearsightedness?

The eye lens may become too thick & its focal length is reduced. the ciliary muscles are not able to relax sufficiently to make the eye lens thin when viewing distant objects. So, they are unable to increase the focal length of the lens & the image is formed before retina. Since short sightedness occurs due to excessive convergence of light rays by the eye lens, it can be corrected by using a diverging lens, i.e, a concave lens. A properly chosen focal length of a concave lens compensates the extra convergence of the eye lens thus, removing the defect. The scientific name of short sightedness is myopia.
