Corrective lenses create a <u>virtual</u> image that is seen by the eye. For myopia, this image is <u>closer</u> than the object. For hyperopia, this image is <u>farther</u> than the object.
Explanation:
Corrective lenses create a virtual image that is seen by the eye.
For myopia, this image is closer than the object.
For hyperopia, this image is farther than the object.
Myopia - Nearsightedness - Closer objects are clear - Distant objects are not clear
Hyperopia - Farsightedness - Distant objects are seen clearly - Closer objects cannot be seen clearly
