What affects the focal point, leading to near- or far-sightedness?
-BARSIC- [3]

Near sightedness is a condition whereby the eyeball is too long or cornea has excess curvature such that light entering the eye is focused in front of the retina rather on the retina itself.

The exact cause of nearsightedness is unknown but there are two factors that may be responsible  for its development.

1. Visual stress

2. Heredity

Individuals who spend considerable time reading or working at a computer or engage in other types of intense close visual work may develop nearsightedness.

There is credible evidence that many people inherit nearsightedness or are at least  predisposed to the condition, especially if both parents suffer from the condition.

Far sightedness (hyperopia) is a condition where the eye is shorter than normal, the cornea is not curved quite enough or the lens sits further back in the eye than is normal.

This condition can be inherited especially if both parents suffer from it.

The other cause is through diseases like diabetes or glaucoma.

The only statement true among all given statement is-

Regular health insurance will not pay for alternative medicine services.

Explanation:

More than a quarter of adults in the US are consuming some form of alternative medicine. They are most likely to pay them from their savings. Alternatives though find a vast variety of use but are not covered under regular health insurance.

This can be considered as the most important reason as to why people hesitate to choose alternatives over traditional medicinal practises. This has ensured the survival of traditional allopathy even though it is costly than alternative medicine.

However, there is an increasing perception among people that alternatives are more effective and popular. But the dominance of traditional medicines won't go unless the alternatives are included in the health insurance segment.
