- Create a ray diagram for eyeglasses that contain a diverging lens. Assume you are looking at a 2 cm tall object that is 4 cm from the lens. The focal length is 3 cm. What type of vision are they used to correct? Give both names. How do they do this? Explain.arrow_forward1. A patient enters an eye doctor’s office and finds the doctor tells him that his near point is 10.0 cm. The doctor also finds the patient’s far point (with eyes relaxed) is 125 cm. Each eye lens can be assumed to be 2.00 cm from the retina. a) Between what limits (units: diopters) does the power of this patient’s lens (technically lens+cornea combination) vary? b) The doctor is going to prescribe glasses. Calculate the power of the eyeglass lens the patient should use for relaxed distance vision. Is the lens converging or diverging?arrow_forwardAn office administrator realizes that she is having trouble doing her work due to eyesight problems. Her optometrist determines that without glasses she can focus clearly only on objects that lie at distances between 0.450 m and 4.00 m. The optometrist decides that the best way to handle her eyesight problems is to prescribe bifocals that will give her normal visual acuity from 25.0 cm out to infinity. After trying on several pairs of glasses frames, they agree that the glasses will be a distance of 2.20 cm from her eyes. (a) Determine the refractive power needed for the bifocal part that will correct for her nearsightedness (include the sign). D What type of lens is needed? O converging O diverging (b) Determine the refractive power needed for the bifocal part that will correct for her farsightedness (include the sign). D What type of lens is needed?
