If the cornea is reshaped (this can be surgically done or with contact lenses) to correct myopia, should its curvature be made greater or smaller? Explain. Also, explain how hyperopia can be corrected?

Answer :

Answer:

Myopia curvature of the cornea if it is negative the curvatures are positive,

hypermetry,

Explanation:

Myopia is the visual defect that does not allow to see distant objects, which is why it is corrected with a divergent lens so that the image is formed on the retina, therefore, by reforming the curvature of the cornea if it is negative

therefore the curvature must decrease

To correct hypermetry, the curvatures are positive, consequently the curvature of the lens must increase
