Myopia, also known as nearsightedness, is a common eye disorder where a person can see objects up close clearly but has difficulty with objects in the distance. Hyperopia (A) is farsightedness - a condition where a person can see distant objects clearly but not close-up. Presbyopia (B) is an age-related condition where the lens of the eye loses flexibility, making it difficult to focus on close objects. Astigmatism (D) is an imperfection in the shape of the cornea that causes blurred vision.
