AI overview

Hyperopia, commonly called far-sightedness, is a condition where your eyes focus light behind the retina instead of directly on it, making nearby objects appear blurred while distant ones stay clear. It matters because while mild cases may go unnoticed due to your eye's natural focusing ability, severe hyperopia causes blurred vision and eye strain during close-up activities like reading.
