| nearsightedness | <ophthalmology> That error of refraction in which rays of light entering the eye parallel to the optic axis are brought to a focus in front of the retina, as a result of the eyeball being too long from front to back (axial myopia) or of an increased strength in refractive power of the media of the eye (index myopia). Also called nearsightedness, because the near point is less distant than it is in emmetropia with an equal amplitude of accommodation. Origin: Gr. Myein = to shut (18 Nov 1997) |

| 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.

| nearsightedness |
A condition that occurs when the cornea is too steep and/or the eye is too long, causing light to be focused in front of the retina, which results in blurred vision.
