CONCEPT:

Myopia (Nearsightedness)

  • Myopia, also known as nearsightedness, is a common vision condition in which a person can see near objects clearly, but distant objects appear blurry.
  • This condition occurs when the eye is too long or the cornea is too curved, causing light rays to focus in front of the retina instead of on it.

EXPLANATION:

  • For a person suffering from myopia:
    • The person can see near objects clearly because their eyes can focus the light correctly for nearby objects.
    • However, distant objects appear blurry because the light rays are focused in front of the retina instead of directly on it.

Therefore, the correct answer is The person can see near objects clearly
