myopia is correct
Myopia condition takes place when the shape of the eyes leads the light rays to bend in a wrong way, focusing images in front of the retina rather than focusing on the retina

The correct answer is D astigmatism. Myopia is as a result of the eyeball being too long,causing light to focus in front of the retina whereas astigmatism is as a result of irregular shape of the cornea/lens causing light to focus on different points on the retina instead of one point.
