The eye can be regarded as a single refracting surface. The radius of curvature of this surface is equal to that of the cornea $(7.8 \, mm)$. This surface separates two media of refractive indices $1$ and $1.34$. Calculate the distance from the refracting surface at which a parallel beam of light will come to focus in $cm$.

    $1$
  • B
    $2$
  • C
    $4$
  • D
