- DNone of the above
Show answer and explanation
Correct answer: (a) Myopia
Explanation
Seeing near objects clearly but not distant ones is myopia (nearsightedness), corrected with a concave lens.
Hyperopia is the opposite (distant objects clear, near ones blurred), and presbyopia is the loss of near vision with age.
