Eye strain or myopia?

Question

Answer 1

The problem with the computer is usually dry eyes becoming irritated. However it won't cause myopia, which is nearsightedness, the inability to see clearly in the distance. Depending on your age, you may have just started to develop a need for glasses. If you haven't been for an eye exam ever, or in the last 2 years, it would be a good idea to have one soon. This way you can enjoy the benefits of clear vision.

The person above me actually has a hyperopic prescription, which is generally called farsightedness.

Answer 2

I think it's a "myopia" because I looked it up in the Internet and it said that myopia is like you're eyesight is getting deteriorated and it's getting harder and herder for you to see what's around you. Everything starts to get blurry. The reason why it's maybe because of sitting too close to the T.V. or using the computer too much, or getting your eyes tired when you sleep too late at night. Ask a doctor.
