Myopia (or nearsightedness) – the inability to see clearly at a distance.
Nearsightedness is a result of the eye being slightly longer than usual from front to back. This can cause images to focus in front of the retina instead of directly on its surface. As a result, far objects appear blurred and are difficult to focus upon. Myopia is measured using negative diopters. The further the number of diopters is from zero, the more pronounced the myopia or nearsightedness. Nikon offers a variety of single vision lenses designed to correct this condition
and allow for a return to normal vision.
