What are Myopia?
What are Myopia and Hyperopia?
Myopia and Hyperopia are terms for near sightedness and far sightedness.
Causes and Treatment:
 Ideally, light that enters the eye is refracted by the cornea which is the clear covering on the front of the eye, and is also refracted by the lens, coming to a sharp focus on the retina at the back of the eye. Myopia is the medical term for near sightedness. More that 70 million people in the US are myopic. Myopia occurs when the eye is too long for the cornea's curvature. The term near sightedness means you can see near objects clearly without glasses but objects further away are blurred. Light rays entering the normal eye come to a sharp focus on the retina whereas in the case of the near sighted eye, the rays fall short of the retina producing a blurred image. Myopia or near sightedness can be corrected using laser vision correction, glasses or contact lenses.
Find out more about Myopia by visiting American Optometic Association websites.
