A refractive error is a very common eye condition. Due to an abnormal shape or length of the eye, light does not focus on the retina, which results in blurred vision. There are several types of refractive error:

myopia (short-sightedness or near-sightedness): difficulty in seeing distant objects clearly;
hyperopia (long-sightedness or farsightedness): difficulty in seeing close objects clearly;
astigmatism: distorted vision resulting from irregular curvature of the cornea or lens of the eye resulting in difficulty in seeing distant and close objects clearly; and
presbyopia: difficulty in seeing objects at near distance that is associated with increasing age (i.e. after 40 years of age) and occurs almost universally.
