Myopia
refers to blurred vision caused by parallel light focusing on the retina before, mainly manifested as vision loss, blurred vision and other symptoms. If parents belong to low myopia or moderate myopia, the degree of myopia is relatively low, the probability of inheritance is generally low, and most cases will not be inherited to children. If the parents belong to high myopia, that is, the degree of myopia exceeds 600 degrees, then the genes of the human body change, the probability of inheritance is higher, it is easier to inherit to children, and the higher the degree of myopia, the greater the probability of inheritance.
