Solution
The correct option is A Myopia
Near-sightedness, also known as short-sightedness or myopia, is a condition of eye where the close objects can be seen clearly, but the distant objects appear blurred. Here, the image of distant objects is formed in front of the retina. Myopia occurs due to the elongation of eyeball or if the cornea is too curved. This defect can be corrected by using a suitable concave lens. It causes the light rays to diverge before reaching the eyelens.
