When the ciliary muscles in the human eye contract:
1. the lens becomes more convex, generally improving the focus for closer objects
2. the lens becomes more convex, generally improving the focus for farther objects
3. the lens becomes more flat, generally improving the focus for closer objects
4. the lens becomes more flat, generally improving the focus for farther objects
