Hypermetropia is correct by using convex lens. Focal length of lens used,\mathrm{f=+}(defected near point)
\mathrm{\begin{gathered} \mathrm{f}=+\mathrm{d}=+40 \mathrm{~cm} \\ \therefore \quad \text { Power of lens }=\frac{100}{\mathrm{f}(\mathrm{cm})}=\frac{100}{+40}=+2.5 \mathrm{D} \end{gathered}}
