Myopia is when nearby objects are clear but far away objects appear to be blurry to the person. It is caused by either the eyeball has grown too long or the cornea is too steep. Hyperopia is caused by an imperfection in the eye, usually if the eye lens is not round enough or if the eyeball is too short. Close up objects are blurred and far away object are clear.

Myopia is characterised by a slight elongation of the eyeball, causing the image to fall in front of the retina, while hypermetropia is characterised by a slight shortening of the eyeball, causing the image to fall a little behind the retina. In both cases, blur circles are formed instead of image points leading to blurring of the overall image.
