Answer: Visual acuity: sharpness of vision.

Myopia: nearsightedness

Refraction: bending of light rays.

Emmetropia: normal vision.

Accommodation: changes the shape of the eye lens to focus light on the retina.

Presbyopia: age-related farsightedness due to loss of elasticity in the lens.

Astigmatism: reduction in visual acuity due to changes in the cornea or lens.

Hyperopia: farsightedness

Myopia and hyperopia are refractive errors of the eye.

Presbyopia occurs in old age people.

Step-by-step explanation:

Visual acuity: It can be defined as the inability to observe the details of shape of the object. Person loses sharpness in vision.

Myopia: It is a defect in vision in which person is able to observe the near by objects clearly but not able to see the distant objects.

Refraction: It can be defined as the bending of beam of light when it passes through from one substance to another.

Emmetropia: It is a vision without any defect.

Accommodation: It is the ability of the eye to adjust its focal length and adjusting the light on focus.

Presbyopia: It can be defined as the loss of ability of eye to focus on the object. It occurs in old age.

Astigmatism: It is a refractive error in which the eye does not focus light on retina.

Hyperopia: It is also called as farsightedness. Distant objects can be seen clearly but nearby appears blurry.
