A person wears glasses of power 25 D. Is the person farsighted or nearsighted? What is the far point of the person without the glasses?

Given that the power m, is -25D which means person must be near-sighted


For a near-sighted person, the point where object is placed u = ∞


Focal length, f can be calculated from the power as-





Using lens formula –




Substituting the values-




Hence, the far point for the near-sighted person is 40 cm.
