Myopia

Myopia, also known as near sigtedness or short sightedness, where distant objects looks blurry and close objects appear normal. It occurs if the cornea is too curved. As a result, light enreing the eye is not focussed correctly and distant objects looks blurred. It may occur due to genetic or environmental factors. The retina in myopic patients is thin. It is the most common eye problem and uncorrected myopia may cause retinal detachment, cataracts and glaucoma.
