what is hyperopia

Hyperopia: is the refractive error of the eye that leads to blurred vision mainly in objects that are close while the distant ones appear normally. As the situation worsens, objects at all distances may appear blurry. The eye is an organ whose main purpose is to collect all the light rays in the retina. The light and all its rays are concentrated in the back part of the eye called retina and its function is to convert the light into an image. In hyperopia, light rays are not concentrated in the retina but behind it, creating blurred vision, which is why patients with hyperopia cannot see clear objects.

How to correct hyperopia

The goal of hyperopia correction is to change the direction of the light rays and refocus them on the retina and convert the light into an image. This is done with biconvex (positive) lenses that are mounted in a frame and help convert light into an image in the retina. Contact lenses can also provide a wider field of view
