 Farsightedness (Hyperopia) |
||
Farsightedness (hyperopia) is a vision condition in which distant objects are seen clearly, but close ones do not come into proper focus. This common condition occurs if your eyeball is too short or the cornea has too little curvature, so light entering your eye is not focused correctly. Common signs of farsightedness includes difficulty in concentrating and maintaining a clear focus on near objects, eye strain, fatigue and/or headaches after close work, aching or burning eyes, irritability or nervousness after sustained concentration. In mild cases of farsightedness, your eyes may be able to
compensate without corrective lenses. In other cases, eyeglasses or contact lenses
may correct this condition by altering the way the light enters your eyes.
