Q: What is another term for nearsightedness?


Read this paragraph and choose the correct option from the provided answers:

Nearsightedness, or myopia, is the condition in which nearby objects are seen clearly, but distant objects are blurry. It occurs when the eyeball is longer than normal. This causes images to be focused in front of the retina. Myopia can be corrected with concave lenses. The lenses focus images farther back in the eye, so they are on the retina instead of in front of it.

 Choices:

- hypoxia

- glaucoma

- anemia

- myopia


A:
myopia
