Answer to Question 1

Correct Answer: 1

Implementation is the process of performing certain interventions designed to move the client toward achievement of the goal. A confused client needs reorientation as part of the nursing care provided. Evaluation is the process whereby the progress toward achieving the goals is reviewed and documented. During the planning phase of the nursing process, nursing diagnoses are formulated after data have been assessed, and then goal setting takes place. Assessment is the phase of obtaining subjective and objective data about the client.

People who have myopia, or nearsightedness, are not able to see objects at a distance but only up close. It occurs when the cornea is either curved too steeply, the eye is too long, or both. This condition is progressive and worsens with time. More than 100 million people in the United States are nearsighted, but only 20% of those are born with the condition. Diet, eye exercise, drug therapy, and corrective lenses can all help manage nearsightedness.
