A person who is "near-sighted", or myopic, cannot focus on faraway objects (objects at infinity) because the curvature of the person's eye-lens is too great. This causes parallel rays (from a distant point source) to bend too much and focus in front of the retina. The person sees a fuzzy patch of light rather than a sharp point. This person needs eyeglasses with lenses that are _______.

a. diverging.
b. corrected for astigmatism.
c. either diverging or converging, depending on the prescription.
d. polarized.
e. converging.
