The correct answer is A. I must squint to see the​ television, I probably need glasses.

Explanation:

In writing, comma splice occurs when two independent/ complete clauses are linked using only a comma. This is considered as a punctuation mistake because independent clauses can be linked using only a semicolon or suing a comma and a conjunction, for example, and, so, but. In the case of the sentence " I must squint to see the​ television, I probably need glasses" comma splice occurs because this sentence contains two independent clauses " must squint to see the​ television" and "I probably need glasses" that have been incorrectly linked with a comma instead of a semicolon or a comma and a conjunction.
