Myopia is also known as _____?
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 1
The correct answer is Option (1) → Near-sightedness
Myopia is near-sightedness: a person sees nearby objects sharply, but distant objects look blurred. The image of a distant object forms in front of the retina, because the eyeball is too long or the eye lens too strongly curved. It is corrected with a concave (diverging) lens of suitable power.
