The patient’s eyes focus the image in front of the retina.
The patient’s eyes are too short.
The patient sees distant things blurry.

The correct answer would be D. because the patient's eyes have oddly shaped corneas. I really hope that this help's. I just moved to the U.S. so please dun't be mad at me if it's wrong.

Answer:

The patient’s eyes are too short.

Step-by-step explanation:

A person can focus clearly on objects both near and far that means a person's vision is normal.

But when a person cannot focus clearly on objects both near and far then it means that the person is suffering from two defects.

(I) Long sight :

In this defect, the person cannot focus on the nearest object but he can focus clearly on distant objects.

Because his eyeball is too-short and the light is focused at a point behind the retina.

This defect can be correct by using convex lens.

(II) Short sight :

In this defect, the person cannot focus on the distant object but he can focus clearly on near objects.

Because his eyeball is too-long and the light is focused at a point front of retina.

This defect can be correct by using concave lens.

Hence, A doctor suggest converging lenses to correct a patient's vision.

Because The patient's eyes are too short.
