Video transcript

Hi, everyone in this practice problem, we're being asked to name an ocular I refractive error caused by a fission trouble experienced by a cashier. The supermarket cashier has difficulty seeing the prices written on a white board placed at a distance of 1.5 m away from him. He prefers to use glasses to rectify his vision and we're being asked to name the ocular refractive errors causing this fission trouble. The options given are a near sightedness B far far sightedness C press Biop and D A. The um in this practice problem, you wanna um notice that the cashier can only see objects that are near well, but the cashier will have trouble viewing objects that are far because of this. We can call this a near sightedness where a near sightedness is a very common fishing disorder or usually commonly called as Myopia near Cy. So then we can determine that the supermarket to share is experiencing near sightedness, which will correspond to option A in our answer choices. So that'll be it for this video. If you guys still have any sort of confusion, please make sure to check out our adolescent videos on similar topic. But other than that, that will be it for this one. Thank you.
