Hyperopia (Long-Sightedness)
Eyecare
Hyperopia, commonly known as long-sightedness, is a vision condition where nearby objects appear blurry, while distant objects can often be seen more clearly. This occurs when the eye is too short or the cornea is too flat, causing light to focus behind the retina instead of directly on it.
