True

Vedclass · Answer

(A) Long-sightedness,also known as $Hypermetropia$,is a defect of vision where a person can see distant objects clearly but cannot see nearby objects distinctly. This happens because the light rays from a nearby object focus behind the retina. $A$ convex lens is used to converge the light rays before they enter the eye,allowing the image to be focused correctly on the retina. Therefore,the statement is $True$.

$A$ convex lens can be used to correct long-sightedness (hypermetropia).
