Answer:
Explanation:
A person with myopia or short sight can see objects close to them clearly, but not far away. Myopia is corrected by spectacles or contact lenses with lenses which are 'minus' or concave in shape. So if you're short sighted, your prescription will have a minus lens power, e.g. -2.50D.
- Short-sightedness, or myopia, is a very common eye condition that causes distant objects to appear blurred, while close objects can be seen clearly.
- Myopia occurs when the eyeball is too long, relative to the focusing power of the cornea and lens of the eye.
- This causes light rays to focus at a point in front of the retina, rather than directly on its surface.
- Nearsightedness also can be caused by the cornea and/or lens being too curved for the length of the eyeball.
- In some cases, myopia is due to a combination of these factors.
- Nearsightedness can be corrected with glasses, contact lenses: a concave lens (minus powered) is placed in front of a myopic eye, moving the image back to the retina and clarifying the image.
