近視 (きんし) is a Japanese word that refers to myopia, an eye condition in which a person has difficulty seeing distant objects clearly. The word is composed of the kanji 近 (きん), which means "near" or "close", and 視 (し), which means "vision" or "sight". The etymology of the word dates back to the Edo period (1603-1868), when myopia was common among scholars who spent long hours reading and writing in enclosed environments.
