A member asked:
What are the causes of sight problems, such as short-sightedness and long-sightedness?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Internal growth: Almost all eyes are shorter than needed at birth (farsighted) and eyes grow with development. This changes the eyes to near and far sightedness to many. The cause then is growth combined with heredity and birth issues.
