That'll squish the lens, but the overall shape of the eyeball is what causes the myopia in most cases.

Tecnically the crystaline lens is in an anterior chamber inside your eye, so these contacts can't really squish the lens itself.

These contact lenses are squishing against your cornea. So in actual fact an anterior portion of your eyeball is being re-shaped.
