Myopia, another term for nearsightedness, refers to a condition in which you can see objects up close clearly while objects remain blurry off in the distance. Nearsightedness develops if your eyeball is too long or if the cornea, which is the clear front cover of your eye, is too curved. This means the light that enters your eye focuses incorrectly, causing distant objects to appear blurred.
