Warsaw \u00b7 Krakow \u00b7 Vienna \u00b7 Zurich<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tired eyes at the end of the workday, headaches when reading, letters that only become sharp at arm’s length \u2014 this is how hyperopia manifests itself daily. A young eye can mask it for years with accommodative effort, which is why many patients only receive this diagnosis when close-up work starts to become tiring. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Definition:<\/strong> Hyperopia (farsightedness) causes the image to form behind the retina, resulting in blurred vision \u2013 both up close and at a distance. The cause may be an eyeball that is too short or insufficient refractive power of the cornea or lens. <\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n

Farsightedness \u2013 In Brief<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Farsightedness, medically known as hyperopia<\/strong>, is a refractive error where the eyeball is too short or the cornea is too flat. The image forms behind the retina. A young eye masks it with accommodative effort, which is why it only causes fatigue and headaches for a long time, rather than blurred vision. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
