A person Vikram can clearly see objects situated between 25 cm25 \text{ cm} and 200 cm200 \text{ cm}. Which of the following may represent the range of clear vision for Rohan, who has stronger muscles than Vikram, but all other parameters of his eye are identical to those of Vikram?

Options

  1. A18 cm18 \text{ cm} to 300 cm300 \text{ cm}
  2. B25 cm25 \text{ cm} to 300 cm300 \text{ cm}
  3. C18 cm18 \text{ cm} to 200 cm200 \text{ cm}
  4. D25 cm25 \text{ cm} to 200 cm200 \text{ cm}

Correct answer

C. 18 cm18 \text{ cm} to 200 cm200 \text{ cm}

Step-by-step solution

The near point of an eye is determined by the maximum accommodation power of the eye lens, which is achieved when the ciliary muscles are fully contracted.

Stronger ciliary muscles can contract more, increasing the maximum curvature and power of the eye lens. This allows the eye to focus on closer objects, decreasing the near point distance. Thus, Rohan's near point will be less than 25 cm25 \text{ cm}.

The far point is determined by the minimum power of the eye lens, which occurs when the ciliary muscles are fully relaxed.

Since all other parameters of the eye are identical, the fully relaxed state of the lens is the same for both individuals. The strength of the muscles does not affect the relaxed state of the lens.

Therefore, the far point remains unchanged at 200 cm200 \text{ cm}.

The range of clear vision for Rohan could be 18 cm18 \text{ cm} to 200 cm200 \text{ cm}.
