Myopia, also known as nearsightedness, is a common vision condition that affects a significant portion of the population. Understanding what causes myopia is crucial for effective myopia management and myopia control. Myopia in the eye occurs when the eyeball is too long or the cornea is too curved, causing light rays to focus in front of the retina instead of directly on it. This results in blurry vision for distant objects. Several factors contribute to the causes of myopia, including genetic predisposition and environmental influences such as prolonged near work and insufficient outdoor activities.

The progression of myopia, particularly in children, is a growing concern in the field of optometry. Factors that contribute to what causes myopia in children include excessive time spent on close-up tasks like reading or using digital devices, and limited exposure to natural light. These habits can lead to what causes myopia to worsen over time. It is also important to note that what causes nearsightedness to get worse may include poor lighting and inadequate visual hygiene. An optometrist specializing in doctor eye health can provide guidance on how to manage and control myopia, addressing both the underlying causes of myopia and the strategies to prevent its progression.
