Farsightedness is the result of an eyeball that is too short or a cornea with too little curve, and light projects behind the retina instead of on it. Myopia vs. astigmatism –Astigmatism is another type of blurry vision caused by an irregular eye structure. In the case of astigmatism, ...
Astigmatism, like myopia (nearsightedness) and hyperopia (farsightedness), is a kind of refractive error. Refractive errors occur when the shape of the eye keeps light from focusing properly to a single point on the retina. Refractive errors are responsible for a host of common vision ...

Antioxidants -- Antioxidants are much in the news these days because of evidence that they may prevent some of the biological deterioration that comes with aging. Researchers believe antioxidants benefit the body by preventing cell damage caused by oxidation. (Oxidation is a natural process that occu...
