Myopia, or nearsightedness. This is when a person can see things clearly that are close up, but objects further away are blurred. It is one of the most common causes for one to need corrective lenses, or glasses.

What causes farsightedness?
When light enters the eye and it focuses behind the retina instead of directly on it, you have farsightedness. Either your eye is too short, your cornea is not curved enough, or your lens sits farther back than it should.
What focuses light and images onto the retina?
The thing that focuses the retina is the pupil.the light rays pass through the cornea into the pupil while passing through a cavity which contains a jelly-like liquid called aqueous humor.then the rays pass through the pupil to the lens.the light rays are converged by the lens and the aqueous humor to an extent that it focuses the rays of light on the retina(yellow spot).
What is the sensitive surface of the eye that acts like the film in a camera?
It's actually called the lens, which is in the cornea.
What is a disorder is a focusing problem that occurs when the lens and cornea do not bend light so that it focuses properly on the retina?

How do the cornea lens and retina aid the vision process?
Cornea: Transmits & focuses light into the eye. Lens: Focuses light rays onto the retina. Retina: Creates impulses to the brain. Thepupil is a hole located in the center of the iris of the eye that allows light to enter the retina.
