Correct answer: B. Elongation of eyeballs

  • A. Shifting of the iris
  • B. Elongation of eyeballs
  • C. Weakening of the retina
  • D. Weaker muscles

Explanation

In short-sightedness, or myopia, the eyeball is usually too long or the cornea is too strongly curved, so images form in front of the retina. A concave lens moves the focus back onto the retina.
