What's the difference between ametropia and disorder?
Ametropia
Definition:
(n.) Any abnormal condition of the refracting powers of the eye.
Example Sentences:

Disorder
Definition:
(n.) Want of order or regular disposition; lack of arrangement; confusion; disarray; as, the troops were thrown into disorder; the papers are in disorder.
(n.) Neglect of order or system; irregularity.
(n.) Breach of public order; disturbance of the peace of society; tumult.
(n.) Disturbance of the functions of the animal economy of the soul; sickness; derangement.
(v. t.) To disturb the order of; to derange or disarrange; to throw into confusion; to confuse.
(v. t.) To disturb or interrupt the regular and natural functions of (either body or mind); to produce sickness or indisposition in; to discompose; to derange; as, to disorder the head or stomach.
(v. t.) To depose from holy orders.
