Progressive Nearsightedness
Description
Progressive nearsightedness—also known as myopia, near-sightedness, short-sightedness, degenerative myopia, malignant myopia, or pathological myopia—occurs when distance vision blur keeps worsening, and regular glasses or contacts are no longer enough to provide clear sight. This condition means you might find yourself needing stronger and thicker lenses every year, but still struggling with blurry vision for far-away objects. Left unchecked, progressive nearsightedness (or high myopia) can increase your risk for serious eye health complications, including retinal detachment and vision loss. If you’re frustrated by worsening vision that seems “unresponsive to glasses alone,” discovering advanced vision correction solutions like ICL lens implants in Korea can offer renewed hope for clear, lasting sight and improved quality of life.
