Hyperopia

Hyperopia, or farsightedness, is a refractive error where the point of focus lies in behind the retina. This is because the hyperopic eyeball tends to be shorter in relation to the focusing power of the cornea and lens of the eye. In hyperopia, close objects look blurred but distant objects appear clear.

Symptoms of Hyperopia

Also known as farsightedness, myopic people are able to see distant objects quite clearly, but find it difficult to see things that are nearer.

In cases of uncorrected myopia, the symptoms could include the following:

  • Headaches
  • Excessive blinking and eye rubbing
  • The need to squint in order to see clearly at near
  • Eye strain or tiredness when focusing on near object like reading

Causes of Hyperopia

What help is available?

Since the hyperopic eyeball is shorter relative to the focusing power of the cornea and lens of the eye, the light rays end up focusing behind the retina, rather than directly on its surface.


Typically, in some cases children are born with hyperopia while others develop it at a later stage. Hyperopia is often confused with presbyopia, however they are different conditions even though both seem to affect near vision.

Your optometrist is able to detect hyperopia during a routine eye test. Hyperopia may be corrected with either glasses, contact lenses, or even surgery.


Following the eye test, your optometrist will educate you about the condition and advise you on the best options available to you.
