Farsightedness is an ophthalmological disorder in which the image is focused not on the retina, but outside it, which makes it difficult to clearly see objects at a close distance. The medical name for this condition is hyperopia.

The cause of the development of this disorder may be a shortened shape of the eyeball or insufficient ability of the lens to refract light. The causes of farsightedness can be both congenital and acquired.

Hyperopia in children can be physiological, since the eyeball is still developing. In most cases, it resolves on its own, but in case of significant impairment, correction is necessary.

In hyperopia, the degrees are determined depending on the refractive index of light in diopters:

• Weak degree (up to +2.0 diopters) - minor difficulties with reading and working at close range, possible discomfort after prolonged visual work.
• Moderate hyperopia of both eyes (+2.25 to +5.0 diopters) - noticeable deterioration of vision at close range, frequent headaches, increased strain on the eyes.
• High degree (over +5.0 diopters) - significant deterioration of vision at any distance, significant discomfort during visual work.

To correctly determine the degree of hyperopia and select effective treatment, ophthalmologists at the Oxford Medical clinic conduct a comprehensive diagnosis, which includes:

• visual acuity testing using special tables;
• refractometry - computer-based determination of refractive errors;
• determination of accommodation - the ability of the eyes to focus at different distances;
• examination of the fundus to assess the condition of the retina and optic nerve.

The cost of treating farsightedness depends on the chosen correction method, the degree of visual impairment and the individual characteristics of the patient.
