Farsightedness (Hyperopia)

Farsightedness, also know as hyperopia, is a condition in which a person can see objects far away clearly, but objects up close may be blurry.

When one is farsighted objects up close may appear blurry, one may need to squint to see clearly. One may often squint causing eyestrain and aches around the eyes especially after prolonged intervals of tasks that require near vision.
The condition is easily corrected with LASIK procedure, contact lenses or glasses.
