Eyes are significant rgans f ur bdy. Having a gd eyesight is smetimes a must in applying fr a university r a jb. S many researches have been dne abut eyes, especially abut near－sight.
Being nearsighted is far mre cmmn than it nce was. It has gne up by 66 percent in Americans since the early 1970s, accrding t a recent study by the Natinal Eye Institute. In China and ther East Asian cuntries, as many as 90 percent f high schl graduates are thught t be nearsighted.
Near－sight happens when eyeballs are lnger than nrmal, changing the angle at which light enters the eye and therefre the ability t fcus n distant bjects. The disrder invlves a cmplex interplay(相互作用) f genetics and envirnment and usually begins befre adlescence when the eye is grwing, but it can wrsen in early adulthd.
