Answer»

"The person has HYPERMETROPIA DEFECT which is the farsightedness that means that the image formed at BEYOND the retina so it require to be a convergent lens to get focused at retina.


The corrective measure is:

U = - 25cm

v = -50 cm

1/f = 1/v – 1/v

1/f = 1/-50 – 1/-25

1/f = -1 +2/50

1/f = 1/50

P = 1/f = 1/50 = 0.02 cm = 0.0002 D
