Myopia, also known as nearsightedness, is a refractive error in which distant objects appear blurry while nearby objects are usually clear.This happens because light entering the eye focuses in front of the retina instead of directly on it when looking at distant objects. Myopia is influenced by both genetics and environmental factors. Having one or both parents with myopia increases a child&#8217;s likelihood of developing it. Limited outdoor time and prolonged near-work habits are also associated with myopia development and progression. What Are The Symptoms of Myopia? Common symptoms include: Blurry distance vision, such as difficulty seeing road signs or classroom boards. Squinting to see distant objects more clearly. Sitting close to the television or holding objects close to the face. Difficulty recognizing faces from a distance. Eye strain or headaches, particularly when trying to see distant details. In children, reduced classroom performance or complaints about not seeing the board clearly. How is Myopia Corrected? Myopia can be corrected in several ways: \u00a0Eyeglasses: Minus-powered lenses diverge incoming light so it can focus correctly on the retina. They are a common, safe way to correct myopia.

LASER","og_description":"What is Myopia? Myopia, also known as nearsightedness, is a refractive error in which distant objects appear blurry while nearby objects are usually clear.This happens because light entering the eye focuses in front of the retina instead of directly on it when looking at distant objects. Myopia is influenced by both genetics and environmental factors. Having one or both parents with myopia increases a child&#8217;s likelihood of developing it. Limited outdoor time and prolonged near-work habits are also associated with myopia development and progression. What Are The Symptoms of Myopia? Common symptoms include: Blurry distance vision, such as difficulty seeing road signs or classroom boards. Squinting to see distant objects more clearly. Sitting close to the television or holding objects close to the face. Difficulty recognizing faces from a distance. Eye strain or headaches, particularly when trying to see distant details. In children, reduced classroom performance or complaints about not seeing the board clearly. How is Myopia Corrected? Myopia can be corrected in several ways: \u00a0Eyeglasses: Minus-powered lenses diverge incoming light so it can focus correctly on the retina. They are a common, safe way to correct myopia. Contact Lenses: Contact lenses provide optical correction directly on the eye and can offer a wider field of view than glasses. Refractive surgery: Procedures such as LASIK, and PRK reshape the cornea to reduce myopia in appropriately selected patients. They correct refractive error but do not eliminate risks associated with an elongated eye.\u00a0 Myopia control for children: Specially designed contact lenses, orthokeratology (overnight reshaping lenses), stellest glasses, and low-dose atropine may help slow myopia progression in selected children. These treatments aim to slow worsening myopia, not simply make vision clearer. Why is High Myopia a Concern? High myopia is more than a need for stronger glasses. A longer eyeball can stretch and thin structures at the back of the eye, increasing the risk of: Retinal tears and retinal detachment. Myopic macular degeneration. Glaucoma. Earlier development of cataracts. People with high myopia should maintain regular comprehensive eye examinations. Sudden flashes of light, a sudden increase in floaters, a curtain-like shadow, or sudden vision loss require urgent evaluation.","og_url":"https:\/\/nyeyeandlaser.com\/zh\/myopia\/","og_site_name":"NY EYE &amp;
