Myopia (Short-Sight): When the rays of light are focused in front of the retina. Need concave or – (minus) glasses for correction.

Astigmatism: When the rays of light are focused in an irregular fashion due to uneven focusing power around the eye it requires cylindrical lens oriented at a specific axis for its correction.
