and the lens to focus light behind the retina
what is myopia and when does it occur? it is nearsightedness and occurs when the eye's focusing power is too strong
and focuses light in front of the retina
What is the retina? It is the imaging surface of the eye
What is the cornea It is the clear front surface of the eye
