AGAIN ABOUT MYOPIA...

Myopia is also known as short-sightedness which means patient has difficulty in focusing on distance objects. The image will appear blurred in retina. This is because the size of eyeball is longer than usual. I give you one example... let say I am focusing at the traffic light, the image of traffic light is focused in front of retina rather than on it. So, it makes me difficult in seeing distance object.

Other reason is due to cornea and crystalline lens themselves. Some patient has difficulty in adjusting distance object clearly because of the combination of corneal and crystalline lens which is too powerful that the eye could not cope with it. I will explain to you in other entry what and how is our eyes supposed to be in normal.
