nearsighted: Seeing only items that are close clearly
nearsighted: Nearsightedness or myopia occurs when the cornea is too steep relative to the length of the eyeball As light enters the eye, this causes the visual image to focus in front of the retina, resulting in a blurred or distorted view
nearsighted: Say: neer-seye-tid You might be nearsighted if you have trouble seeing things that are far away It's probably because the lenses in your eyes are shaped a little differently and distorting things a bit But don't worry, it's nothing a pair a glasses won't fix!

nearsighted: Term applied to a person who can clearly see nearby objects but not clearly see distant objects Eyeball is elongated so that images focus in front rather than on the retina
nearsighted: SEE: MYOPIA
