What is myopia?

Myopia, commonly known as nearsightedness, is a refractive error where distant objects appear blurry while close objects are seen clearly. It occurs when the eyeball is too long or the cornea is too curved, causing light to focus in front of the retina rather than directly on it. Myopia often develops in childhood and can progress as the child grows. Early detection and management are essential to prevent significant vision impairment. At Collisons Opticians, we offer comprehensive myopia control solutions to help manage and slow the progression of this condition.
