Causes
The eyeball is longer
than normal or too large, which affects the cornea and
lens having too short focusing power, so light rays will
be focussed at a point in front of the retina, rather
than directly on its surface. Myopia often progresses
throughout the teenage years, when the body is growing
rapidly.
Symptoms
Nearsighted people usually see well up close without corrective
lenses. Myopia people often have headaches, blurred vision
or feel fatigued when driving or playing sports. If you
experience these symptoms while wearing glasses or contact
lens, you may need a comprehensive eye examination.
Treatment
Myopia occurs when the eye cannot focus the light properly.
Glasses and contact lenses are the ways to correct it.
Today, several surgical treatment options are available
such as PRK, LASIK, LASEK, or EIPILASIK |
