It has become common to replace the cataract-clouded lens of the eye with an internal lens. This intraocular lens can be chosen so that the person has perfect distant vision. Will the person be able to read without glasses? If the person was nearsighted, is the power of the intraocular lens greater or less than the removed lens?
The contact lens prescription for a mildly farsighted person is 0.750 D, and the person has a near point of 29.0 cm. What is the power of the tear layer between the cornea and the lens if the correction is ideal, taking the tear layer into account?
The contact-lens prescription for a nearsighted person is —4.00 D and the person has a far point of 22.5 cm. What is the power of the tear layer between the cornea and the lens if the correction is ideal, taking the tear layer into account?
A 7.5 binocular produces an angular magnification of —7.50, acting like a telescope. (Mirrors are used to make the image upright.) If the binoculars have objective lenses with a 75.0-cm focal length, what is the focal length of the eyepiece lenses?
In Figures CQ36.11a and CQ36.11b, which glasses correct nearsightedness and which correct farsightedness?
If the lens of a person’s eye is removed because of cataracts (as has been done since ancient times), why would you expect an eyeglass lens of about 16 D to be prescribed?
A 7.5x binocular produces an angular magnification of 7.50, acting like a telescope. (Mirrors are used to make the image upright.) If the binoculars have objective lenses with a 75.0 cm focal length, what is the focal length of the eyepiece lenses?
Show that the magnification of a thin lens is given by M = di/do (Eq. 38.6). Hint: Follow the derivation of the lens makers equation (page 1233) and start with a thick lens.
A large reflecting telescope has an objective mirror with a 10.0-rn radius of curvature. What angular magnification does it produce when a 3.00 m-focal length eyepiece is used?
The accommodation limits for a nearsighted persons eyes are 18.0 cm and 80.0 cm. When he wears his glasses, he can see faraway objects clearly. At what minimum distance is he able to see objects clearly?
Why are diverging mirrors often used for rearview mirrors in vehicles? What is the main disadvantage of using such a mirror compared with a flat one?
Repeat the previous problem for glasses that are 1.75 cm from the eyes.
