Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Changing the shape of the lens to correctly focus light on the retina is called accommodation. Refraction is the bending of light as it passes through different mediums, such as from air to the cornea. Astigmatism is a condition where the cornea or lens is not perfectly curved, leading to distorted vision. Presbyopia is a condition where the lens loses its elasticity and the ability to change shape, leading to difficulty focusing on near objects.
