The Most Common Eyes Disease

 

Many of us have blurry vision at least to some degree but what causes it andwhat can we do to bring our world into better focus light enters the eye through the pupil which works much like the shutter of an automatic camera to help us adjust to brighter or darker conditions when we need more light the pupil opens wider when we need less light the pupil becomes smaller light rays entering the eye also must be bent into a precise point of focus on the retina found in the inner back of the eye when this doesn't happen our vision is blurred eyeglasses and contact lenses sharpen focus by bending light and changing the way it enters the eye but why do we have blurry vision in the first place well when you're farsighted your eyeball is too short this means that light rays reach a point of focus beyond the retina in this case you see blurry images up close but when  your eyeball is too long light rays achieve a point of focus before they can even reach the retina this means you are nearsighted and objects appear blurred in the distance many eyes also have an irregularly shaped cornea which is the clear part of the eyes surface when this happens light rays can have several different points of focus this is called a stigmatism which also causes blurry vision.
