Today we will learn ‘The defects of vision and their correction’.

Defects of vision and their correction
The ability to see is called vision.It is also called an eyesight.Vision is known as ‘Drishti’ in Hindi. There are three common defects of vision or defects of the eyes:
  1. Myopia
  2. Hypermetropia
  3. Presbyopia
Myopia (Short-sightedness or nearsightedness)
Myopia is the defect of vision due to which a person cannot see the distant objects clearly, though he/she can see the nearby objects clearly. The far point of an eye suffering from myopia is less than infinity.
 The defect of the eye called myopia is caused:-
  1. Due to thehigh converging power of eye lens because of its short focal length.
  2. Due to the eyeball being too long.
In some cases, in an eye suffering from myopia, the ciliary muscle attached to the eye lens does not relax sufficiently to make the eye-lens thinner to reduce its converging power. So due to the greater converging power of the eye-lens in amyopic eye, the image of a distant object is formed in front of the retina and hence the eye cannot see it clearly.
Myopia is corrected using spectacles containing concave lenses. The concave lens used for correcting myopia should be of such a focal length that it produces a virtual image of the distant object at the far point of the myopic eye. The whole purpose of using a concave lens here is to reduce the converging power of the eye-lens.

Lessons-Worksheets-Question Papers-CBSE Class 2 English CBSE 2nd Class English – One and Many  In this blog, we share the spelling rules used in the concept of  One  and Many. When there is only one of a naming word (noun), it is said to be a  singular noun . When a noun shows more than one, it is said to be in the  plural . We can add  –S, -es, -ves or ies  to show that there is more than one noun.  For example,  we say many birds, four biscuits, six brushes. But for the students of  Class 2 , it’s very difficult and confusing to understand where to use  s , es, ves or ies  in the form of many. Don’t worry, it looks difficult, but it is very easy as in grammar each concept has a set of rules that need to practice. Noun ending with  –s, -x, -o, -sh, -ch, and –ss  form plurals by taking  –es.

ANS: – Cash – Share exchange – Deferred payment – Contingent consideration Q2 – How is deferred payment dealt, when it forms part of purchase consideration? ANS:  The deferred payment is discounted to present value and included in the cost of consideration. At the end of each year, the liability is increased by unwinding the discount, until the payment is settled. For example, An amount of Rs. 108,000 was deferred to be paid after 2 years. The discount rate applicable is 8%. The net present value today of Rs. 108,000 is equal to (108,000 * 1) / (1.08) ^2)= Rs. 92,593 included in purchase consideration. A liability of Rs. 92,59...
