Choose the correct answer from the options given below :

A refractive error is a very common eye disorder. It occurs when the eye can not clearly focus the images from the out side world. The result of refractive errors is blurred vision, which is sometimes so severe that it causes visual impairment.

Key PointsThere are 4 common types of refractive errors:

• Nearsightedness (myopia) makes far-away objects look blurry.
• Farsightedness (hyperopia) makes nearby objects look blurry.
• Astigmatism can make far-away and nearby objects look blurry or distorted.
• Presbyopia makes it hard for middle-aged and older adults to see things up close.

Thus the correct option are A, C and D.

Additional Information

• Amblyopia develops when there's a breakdown in how the brain and the eye work together, and the brain can't recognize the sight from one eye.
• Strabismus is a disorder in which both eyes do not line up in the same direction.
