Myopia occurs when your eye is too long compared to the curvature (focusing power) of your cornea, or the cornea is more curved. The result of this is that light focuses short of the retina. This means you cannot see distant objects clearly, such as the numbers on the front of buses. Laser eye surgery can correct this by changing the shape of the cornea so that its focusing power is matched to the length of the eye.
