Lenses can correct vision problems by bending light rays before they reach the eye, in effect moving the focal point of the eye's lens so that it falls upon the retina and creates a clear image. Concave lenses cause light rays to converge and lengthen the focal point for the near sighted eye. Concave lenses are thinner in the middle and thicker on the edges and may be curved on one or both sides. Concave lenses cause light rays to diverge, or spread apart. :)
Glasses for nearsighted people are convex. That is, the center of the lens is thinner than the outer edges.
myopic or nearsighted.
concave lenses are prescribed by doctors
Convex lenses, also known as plus powered lenses, do cause light to converge. This type of lens is used on a Hyperopic (farsighted) patient. Concave lenses cause light to diverge and are used on Myopic (nearsighted) patients.
Por supuesto!
Nearsighted is an adjective.
A person who is farsighted needs a converging lens, which is a convex lens, to help focus light properly onto the retina. This type of lens helps to converge incoming light rays so that distant objects can be seen more clearly.
in order to clearly see farther away
Using concave lens the short sight problem could be rectified. Near sighted person cannot see the things far away. He can see things only so near to his eyes. The ray coming from the far object would form an image just before retina since the eye ball is elongated horizontally. So to make the image to move backward and fall on the retina, a concave lens is used to diverge the ray and finally the image would fall on the retina. Thus the remedy is possible with concave lens.
if you are nearsighted, it's because you are reading something that you don't need glasses to see. try to take your glasses off when you read, because if you don't it will strain your eyes horribly.
The type of lense is a convex lense
A replacement lens is usually inserted at the time of the surgery.
