What Is Myopia?
5. Complications
Complications arising from myopia are mostly linked to severe myopia. High myopia has been shown to lead to other conditions such as glaucoma, retinal detachment, and cataracts. Furthermore, other complications may arise during surgery such as over-correction, which leads to the individual becoming farsighted, and infection of the cornea.
Those using contact lenses are also prone to eye infections if proper care of the lenses is not practiced.
