B. Compound myopic astigmatism: correct with minus on minus
C. Simple myopic astigmatism: correct with plano on minus cylinder
D. Mixed astigmatism: correct with plus on minus

Answer :

Final answer:

Simple myopic astigmatism is corrected with a plano on the minus cylinder.

Explanation:

The correct statement is c. Simple myopic astigmatism is corrected with a plano (no prescription) on the minus cylinder. In this type of astigmatism, the cornea is curved more sharply in one direction than the other, causing blurred vision. The minus cylinder corrects the myopia (nearsightedness), while the plano portion doesn't add any correction for astigmatism.
