A member asked:
Are there ways to know the cause of your myopia?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: You have myopia because your eye is longer than normal. Rarely myopia is caused by an unusually curvy cornea or lens in a person with a normal length eye. The length of your eye can be measured but this is not done routinely.
