Undiagnosable Myopia
In short, I can't see. I'm having no problems seeing up close, but once it gets close to 9-10 inches away from my eyes, everything gets blurry. I have been to 4 eye doctors (2 opthamologists, 2 optometrists), and none have been able to find any substantial refractive error, even with the use of an autorefractor. I know it doesn't make much sense, but it's getting a bit difficult to function with this much unaccommodated myopia. As eye doctors are unable to find the cause of this, what course of action should I take?

When small print is closer than ten inches (depends upon severity) to your eyes and it becomes blurrier, that is presbyopia, not myopia. Explore the the link to the American Academy of Ophthalmology. Presbyopia is age related, starting about 35 - 40 years old.
Try some "reading glasses", not normal glasses. Reading glasses can be purchased at most pharmacies without a prescription or dollar stores. Even if there is some other problem, reading glasses are great for reading very small print such as on electronic circuit boards and but allow your eyes to relax at the same time.
