Myopia, also known as nearsightedness, is a common eye condition where distant objects appear blurry while close objects appear clear. This condition occurs when the eyeball is too long or the cornea (the clear front cover of the eye) is too curved, causing light rays to focus in front of the retina instead of directly on it. In recent years, there has been a significant increase in the prevalence of myopia among children, making it a growing concern for parents and eye care professionals alike.
