Matching Vision Impairment Terms and Definitions

This question requires matching specific types of blindness (LIST-I) with their corresponding definitions (LIST-II). We will analyze each term:

  • A. Economic blindness: This relates to vision loss that significantly impacts one's ability to work or earn a living. Definition II, specifying vision of <3/60 in the better eye after correction, aligns with common definitions of legal or economic blindness.
  • B. Social blindness: This refers to vision loss that hinders social functioning. Definition IV, the inability to count fingers at 6 meters, indicates a level of vision loss that severely affects interaction and daily activities, fitting this description.
  • C. Manifest blindness: This implies a clearly observable or demonstrable state of blindness, often assessed after attempts at correction. Definition III, describing vision of 1/60 or less even after best correction, represents a profound and evident level of vision impairment.
  • D. Absolute blindness: This is the most severe form, characterized by the complete absence of vision. Definition I, the state of having no light perception, is the definitive match for absolute blindness.

Correct Matching

Based on the analysis:

  • A matches with II
  • B matches with IV
  • C matches with III
  • D matches with I

Therefore, the correct matching is A-II, B-IV, C-III, D-I.
