Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Axial myopia occurs when the eyeball is too long, causing light to focus in front of the retina and resulting in difficulty seeing far objects. Refractive myopia, on the other hand, occurs when the cornea or lens is too curved or powerful, causing light to focus in front of the retina. Axial hyperopia occurs when the eyeball is too short, resulting in difficulty seeing close objects. Refractive hyperopia occurs when the cornea or lens is too flat or weak, causing light to focus behind the retina.
