A person with presbyopia has lost some or all of the ability to accommodate the power of the eye. If such a person’s distant vision is corrected with LASIK, will she still need reading glasses? Explain.
Suppose a man stands in front of a mm-or as show below. His eyes are 1.65 m above the floor and the top of his head is 0.13 m higher. Find the height above the floor of the top and bottom of the smallest minor in which he can see both the top of his head and his feet. How is this distance related to the man’s height?
Why is your vision so blurry when you open your eyes while swimming under water? How does a face mask enable clear vision?
A water fountain is at the center of a circular pool as shown in Figure P1.59. A student walks around the pool and measures its circumference C. Next, he stands at the edge of the pool and uses a protractor to measure the angle of elevation of his sightline to the top of the water jet. How high is the fountain?
(a) The print in many books averages 3.50 mm in height. How high is the image at the print on the retina when the book is held 30.0 cm from the eye? (b) Compare the size of the print to the sizes of rods and cones in the fovea and discuss the possible details observable in the letters. (The eye-brain system can perform better because of interconnections and higher order image processing.)

Presbyopia is the tendency to gradually become far-sighted (hyperopic) as you age. If you have normal vision when you are young, you have a near point of 25 cm. D. As you continue to age, the corrective lenses will no longer be sufficient to allow you to see an object that is 25 cm in front of your eye. When you are wearing your corrective lenses, suppose that you can now see objects only if they are no closer than 40 cm in front of your eye. What is the actual near point of your eye now?N = _____ cmWhat is the focal length of your eye's lens that corresponds to this new near point?f = ______ cm
