Elevated insulin levels affect the development of your eyeball, making it abnormally long, thereby causing short sightedness.

The reason for this is because high insulin levels from excess carbohydrates can increase insulin resistance and disturb the delicate choreography that normally coordinates eyeball lengthening and lens growth.
