What is Myopia?

Answer 1

Defect of vision in which a person is able to focus on objects in the distance, but not on close objects. It is caused by the failure of the lens to return to its normal rounded shape, or by the eyeball being too short, with the result that the image is focused on a point behind the retina. Hypermetropia is corrected by wearing glasses fitted with converging lenses, each of which acts like a magnifying glass.

Answer 2

Myopia is a refractive defect of the eye in which light produces image focus in front of the retina when the sight adjustment is off balance. People with myopia see nearby objects perfectly, if not almost, clearly. Distant objects are blurred since the eyeball is too long or the cornea is too steep.

Basically it means that one is nearsighted.
a condition of the eye in which parallel raysare focused in front of the retina, objects being seendistinctly only when near to the eye; nearsightedness

Answer 3

Hyperopia or hypermetropia is a defect of vision caused by imperfection in the eye this causes problems focusing on objects that are near the image will appear blurred. Hyperopia also in rare cases results in a sufferer being unable to focus on objects at any distance. People with hyperopia can experience blurred vision, asthenopia, accommodative dysfunction, binocular dysfunction, amblyopia, and strabismus. or farsightedness.
Hyperopia is the medical term meaning farsightedness.

Answer 4

Approximately one out of 10,000 people in the United States develop retinal detachments each year. People who are at highest risk are those with extreme nearsightedness (hypermyopia), a family history of retinal detachment, or thinning of the retina (lattice degeneration) or other degenerative retinal conditions. Such people should have regular retinal examinations and should be alert for symptoms. http://www.mdsupport.org/library/detach.html

Answer 5

Others have blurry near vision and clear distance vision, and those with the most severe cases have blurry near and distance vision. Headaches and eyestrain may also occur.

Answer 6

The condition where the point of focus of parallel light rays from an object is behind the retina is called hyperopia

Answer 7

hyperopia is due to a to short eyeball. Or a not enough curvature cornea. I think lol

Answer 8

presbyopia
