  3. Myopia is also known as near-sightedness. A person with myopia can see nearby objects clearly but cannot see distant objects distinctly. In a myopic eye, the image of a distant object is formed in front of the retina and not at the retina itself. This defect may arise due to

    excessive curvature of the eye lens, or
    elongation of the eyeball.

  4. Light coming from the stars undergoes refraction on entering the Earth’s atmosphere. This refraction
    continues until it reaches the Earth’s surface. This happens because of uneven heating of atmospheric
    air. Hence, the atmospheric air has changing refractive index at various altitudes. In this case,
    starlight continuously travels from a rarer medium to a denser medium. Hence, it continuously bends
    towards the normal

    so atmosphere refraction is responsible for twinkling the star
