Hyperopia (Farsightedness)

Hyperopia, known as far-sightedness, or long-sightedness, means that light entering the eye will focus behind, instead of directly on, the retina. This results from a flatter cornea or shorter eye. Those with hyperopia usually have trouble focusing up close, and may be unable to see at a distance as well.

Symptoms of Hyperopia can include:

• Blurred vision
• Difficulty seeing objects up close
• Crossing of the eyes
• Difficulty reading
• Headaches
• Aching eyes or eye strain
