Define what is myopia.
Answers
Myopia (nearsightedness) is a refractive error. Refractive error is when the eye does not bend (refract) light properly. In myopia, close objects look clear but distant objects appear blurred. Nearsightedness can also be caused by the cornea and/or lens being too curved for the length of the eyeball. In some cases, myopia occurs due to a combination of these factors. Myopia typically begins in childhood, and you may have a higher risk if your parents are nearsighted. Currently, there is no cure for nearsightedness. But corrective lenses only work while a person is wearing them and they are not a cure. Once myopia has stabilized (usually sometime after age 18 to 20), LASIK and other laser eye surgery procedures are effective long-term treatments for nearsightedness.
It is a disease in which a person is able to see near object but not the far object.
It is caused due to enlargment of eye ball and excessive curvature of the cornea.
