Farsightedness - Hyperopia - Puerto Vallarta
It is a refractive error, which means that the eye does not bend or refract light properly to a single focus to see images clearly. In hyperopia, distant objects look somewhat clear, but close objects appear more blurred.
Some people may not notice any problems with their vision, especially when they are young. And for others with severe farsightedness, vision can be blurry at any distance, near or far.
Farsightedness is an eye focusing disorder, not an eye disease.
Signs and symptoms include:
- Difficulty with close tasks like reading
- Eyestrain
- Squinting
- Headaches
Most children are farsighted, yet will not have symptoms. This is due to the flexibility of the lens in a child’s eyes. This makes accommodation (changing focus between distances) easier.
How Is Farsightedness Corrected?
Farsightedness is easily corrected with: Eyeglasses, contact lenses or Refractive Surgery
