About nearsightedness (myopia)

Nearsightedness is a condition that happens when the eye cannot focus clearly, making faraway objects look blurred. Myopia affects more than 40% of Americans, and usually first occurs in school-age children and progresses until around age 20 when the eyes stop growing.

Common symptoms of nearsightedness include:

  • blurred-vision-tree

    Blurred vision far away
