Which term denotes the sharpness of vision?

• A. Convergence
• B. Capillary hemangioma
• C. Visual acuity
• D. Alopecia

Answer: (C)

Visual acuity refers to how clearly or sharply you can see details. It’s what we measure when testing how well someone can read an eye chart at a distance, indicating whether vision is normal (like 20/20) or reduced. Convergence is about the way the eyes move inward to focus on near objects, not how clearly those objects are seen. Capillary hemangioma is a benign vascular growth, unrelated to vision clarity. Alopecia is hair loss, also not about vision. So the term that denotes the sharpness of vision is visual acuity.
