Correction of short sightedness, artwork C017 / 7004
Correction of short sightedness. Computer artwork showing a concave lens placed in front of an eye to treat short sightedness. In short sightedness the eyeball is longer than it should be and light is focused in front of the retina, causing difficulty focussing on distant objects. The concave lens causes light passing through it to diverge, and therefore focus further than normal

EDITORS COMMENTS
This artwork, titled "Correction of Short Sightedness" beautifully captures the essence of treating this common visual disorder. Against a striking black background, the illustration showcases a computer-generated image depicting an eye with short sightedness. The eyeball is portrayed as longer than normal, causing light to focus in front of the retina instead of on it. To rectify this issue, a concave lens is ingeniously placed in front of the eye. This optical marvel works by causing light passing through it to diverge, enabling it to focus further than usual. The result? A corrected vision that allows individuals suffering from short sightedness to effortlessly focus on distant objects once again. The intricate details and precision showcased in this artwork highlight its scientific value within the field of ophthalmology and optometry. It serves as a powerful visual aid for understanding how corrective lenses can effectively address myopia or nearsightedness. Created by renowned artist Russell Kightley for Science Photo Library, this print seamlessly combines artistry with medical accuracy. Its purpose extends beyond commercial use; rather, it aims to educate and enlighten viewers about the wonders of vision correction techniques. With its emphasis on optics, refraction, and ocular health, this mesmerizing piece invites us into the fascinating world where science meets art – reminding us that even our most complex biological systems can be understood through creative expression.
