Question:

The object for a magnifier is usually placed very close to the focal point of the lens, creating a virtual image very far away where it can be viewed with the relaxed eye. But the object could be placed so that the image is at the eye's near-point distance. In this case, the image can be viewed only by using the full accommodation of the eye. When used this way, is the angular magnification greater than, equal to, or less than the magnification when the image is far away? Explain.
