Near Sightedness
  • This condition is called myopia.
  • It results from the eyeball being too long or the lens being too thick.
  • This shape causes light to be focused in front of the retina.
  • Things look blurry to a near sighted person.
  • Eyeglasses made with concave lenses can correct this problem.
