Myopia is an eye condition characterized by an eye that is too long, causing light rays to focus in front of the retina.

The distant vision is blurred, but the near vision is sharp.

The correction of myopia with glasses, contact lenses or refractive surgery aims to shift the projection of the image onto the retina so that it becomes sharper.

Myopia begins to develop as the child grows. It is not present from birth.

Myopia often becomes problematic for the child around the age of 9-10 years.

Common signs and symptoms may include blurred vision at a distance, squinting at screens or the blackboard, and headaches.
