The answer is Convergence of images behind the Retina
Convex lens converges light to a principal focus. The thickness of the lens determines the focal length (distance between the center of the lens and the principal focal point). Therefore, by evaluating the thickness of the convex lens, farsightedness, (an eye defect of convergence of images behind the retina) can be corrected by enabling images in the eye to form behind the retina.
Assessing the perineum for bulging is a nursing priority to a client at the second labor stage. A bulging perineum is caused by the presence of the fetal head against the perineal area and usually signifies imminent birth.
