Ability to see objects that are near more clearly than objects that are far is ____ also known as ____
A
nearsighted
B
farsighted
C
myopia
D
hyperopia
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Nearsightedness (myopia) is a common vision condition in which near objects appear clear, but objects farther away look blurry. It occurs when the shape of the eye-or the shape of certain parts of the eye-causes light rays to bend (refract) inaccurately.

Detailed explanation-2: -Hyperopia is a condition in which an image of a distant object becomes focused behind the retina, making objects up close appear out of focus. Myopia is a condition in which, opposite of hyperopia, an image of a distant object becomes focused in front of the retina, making distant objects appear out of focus.

Detailed explanation-3: -Farsightedness (hyperopia) is a common vision condition in which you can see distant objects clearly, but objects nearby may be blurry.

Detailed explanation-4: -Short-sightedness (myopia) is a very common eye condition where you cannot see objects far away clearly. It’s usually corrected with glasses or contact lenses.
