Is Myopia Curable?

Myopia is an eye refractive error condition common to adults and children. Also referred to as nearsightedness, myopia results in blurry vision. It occurs when the light entering your eye focuses on the front of the retina instead of directly on it. It is often diagnosed during childhood when the eyes are growing fast. It can worsen until an individual reaches adulthood at around age 18.
