Transcription: In order to see an object in sharp focus, parallel light rays coming from it must be bent so that an image is formed on the retina. This refraction is controlled by the cornea, the transparent membrane which covers the iris and the lens, which expands and contracts to focus on objects nearer or further away. Myopia, or near-sightedness, is a condition in which people cannot focus on things that are far away.
