Farsightedness: What Is Hyperopia? - American Academy of Ophthalmology
2024年10月24日 · Farsightedness (also called hyperopia) is a refractive error. This is when the eye does not refract—or bend—light properly. Generally, a farsighted person sees clearly far, but near vision is blurry.
Hyperopia - StatPearls - NCBI Bookshelf
2020年11月9日 · The term hyperopia refers to the refractive condition of the eye where parallel light rays coming from the infinity are focussed behind the neurosensory retina (after refraction through the ocular media ) when accommodation is at rest.
Hyperopia - EyeWiki
Hyperopia is also known as “farsightedness” or “hypermetropia”. It is an ocular condition in which the refracting power of the eye causes light rays entering the eye to have a focal point that is posterior to the retina while accommodation is maintained in a state of relaxation.

2020年6月16日 · Farsightedness (hyperopia) is a common vision condition in which you can see distant objects clearly, but objects nearby may be blurry. The degree of your farsightedness influences your focusing ability.
Farsightedness - Wikipedia
Far-sightedness, also known as long-sightedness, hypermetropia, and hyperopia, is a condition of the eye where distant objects are seen clearly but near objects appear blurred. This blur is due to incoming light being focused behind, instead of on, the retina due to …
Hyperopia: a practical introduction - PMC - PubMed Central (PMC)
Hyperopia, also called farsightedness, is a common problem in children worldwide. The limited data available suggest that around 4.6% of children, on average, have clinically significant hyperopia (defined as a spherical equivalent of ≥+2.00 D), ranging from 2.2% in Southeast Asia to 14.3% in the Americas. 1.
Hyperopia - an overview | ScienceDirect Topics
Hyperopia, also termed hypermetropia or farsightedness, is a common refractive error in children and adults. In a hyperopic eye, parallel rays of light entering the eye reach a focal point behind the plane of the retina, while accommodation is in a relaxed state.
Hyperopia (farsightedness) - AOA
Hyperopia, or farsightedness, is a vision condition in which distant objects are usually seen more clearly than close ones. Hyperopia occurs due to the shape of the eye and its components; it is not just a function of the aging of the lens, which occurs with presbyopia .
Farsightedness (Hyperopia) - National Eye Institute
2024年12月4日 · Farsightedness happens when your eyeball grows too short from front to back, or when there are problems with the shape of your cornea (clear front layer of the eye) or lens (an inner part of the eye that helps the eye focus). These problems make light focus behind the retina, instead of on it — and that makes nearby objects look blurry.
Hyperopia - American Academy of Ophthalmology
In hyperopia, or farsightedness, clear images fall behind the retina, so that vision is blurred, particularly up close. The brain “reads” the image right side u
