A shortsighted/nearsighted eye is a very long eye characterized by the creation of a picture in front of the retina. The optical nerve translates a blurred picture to the brain. The further the source of skint, the more blurred the picture will be. On the other hand, a shortsighted/nearsighted eye will be able to see clearly, the stronger the shortsightedness/nearsightedness is, the shorter the vision distance would be.
