Myopia is a common refractive error that affects a growing number of children worldwide. This condition occurs when the eyeball becomes elongated, causing light to focus in front of the retina instead of directly on it. As a result, distant objects appear blurred, while close-up objects remain clear. Myopia typically develops in childhood and can progress rapidly, leading to higher degrees of nearsightedness over time.
