Cats are nearsighted because their vision cannot see very far, so many netizens jokingly call them "nearsighted".

Generally speaking, cats can only clearly see stationary objects within a 10-20 meter radius. Objects at a slightly greater distance may appear as just a blurry shape to a cat. However, despite being nearsighted, cats possess a wider field of vision than humans. Furthermore, another characteristic of cat vision is that objects within 50 cm appear blurry to them, but they can clearly see fast-moving objects.
