Hyperopia (Farsightedness)

Hyperopia, also known as farsightedness, is a common vision condition where close objects appear blurry, while distant objects may be seen more clearly. This occurs because the eyeball is too short, or the cornea is not curved enough, causing light rays to focus behind the retina instead of directly on it. Hyperopia can affect people of all ages, but it's often diagnosed during childhood.

Symptoms of Hyperopia​​​​

  • Blurred vision, especially when focusing on near objects (reading, using a computer)

  • Eye strain

  • Squinting to see clearly

  • Difficulty seeing clearly at night​​

Hyperopia Diagnosis and Treatment Options

A comprehensive eye exam with our optometrist can diagnose hyperopia. The exam may include vision tests to assess your ability to see clearly at various distances and a refraction examination to determine your exact prescription.

​

Early diagnosis and treatment of hyperopia are important. Uncorrected hyperopia can lead to eye strain, headaches, and difficulty performing tasks that require near vision. Early intervention can ensure you see clearly and comfortably throughout your life.

​

There are several effective ways to correct blurry vision caused by hyperopia to improve your vision:
