Question
 A normal eye is not able to see objects closer than 25cm because:

Answer

  1. The eye is not able to decrease the focal length beyond a limit.
Explanation:
The ciliary muscles adjust the focal length to form an image on the retina, but the muscles cannot be strained beyond a limit. Hence, if the object is brought too close to the eye, the focal length cannot be adjusted to form the image on the retina.
