Explanation

Myopia (nearsightedness) is a vision defect where distant objects appear blurry because the eye focuses images in front of the retina instead of on it. A person who cannot see clearly beyond 2 meters has myopia. Hypermetropia (farsightedness) is the opposite - difficulty seeing nearby objects. The 2m distance limit clearly indicates nearsightedness.
