What if your lens of eyes are a bit too strong and eyeball is long?

Myopia, also known as nearsightedness, is a common eye condition in which people can see nearby objects clearly, but objects farther away appear blurry. This occurs because the eyeball is too long or the cornea (the clear, front part of the eye) is too curved, causing light rays to focus in front of the retina (the light-sensitive tissue at the back of the eye) instead of on it.

Myopia is usually diagnosed during childhood or adolescence and can progress over time. It is the most common vision problem in the United States, affecting about 30% of the population.

Symptoms of myopia include:

* Blurred vision when looking at distant objects

* Squinting to see distant objects

* Eyestrain

* Headaches

* Double vision

* Difficulty seeing in bright light

Myopia can be corrected with eyeglasses or contact lenses, which help to focus light rays on the retina. In some cases, laser surgery may be an option to permanently correct the condition.

There are a few things you can do to slow the progression of myopia, including:

* Getting regular eye exams

* Wearing your eyeglasses or contact lenses as prescribed

* Avoiding activities that put stress on the eyes, such as reading in dim light or using computers for long periods

* Eating a healthy diet that includes plenty of fruits, vegetables, and whole grains

* Getting regular exercise

If you have any of the symptoms of myopia, it is important to see an eye doctor for diagnosis and treatment. Early detection and treatment can help to prevent serious vision problems.
