Farsightedness is an eye disorder where distant objects are usually seen clearly, but close ones do not come into proper focus and are blurred. This occurs when the eyeball is too short or the cornea is too flat, and light rays entering the eye focus behind the retina rather than directly on it. Myopia is nearsightedness while hyperopia is farsightedness.
Farsightedness
treatment
Herbs and natural supplements can help.
In cases where the farsightedness is mild, certain natural supplements can offer
significant help. A cure is unreasonable to expect if the
condition is a severe farsightedness.
Improve vision naturally
I am glad to report that the proper use of many nutrients can help restore,
at least partially, the magic of seeing that some of you may have long forgotten
existed. After you try Eyesight Rx or some of the other vision supplements
listed below, you may even take a vision test on a Snellen chart to see if your
vision is better. Some people use Eyesight Rx for blurry vision or night
vision. You may also consider taking in through diet or supplementation
more omega-3 oils and lutein.
Eyesight Rx for low vision
Helps improve close vision and reading
Unlike some vision products that provide nutrients and
herbs for long term healthy vision support, and prevention of visual
impairment, but don't seem to have much of an quick effect on visual
acuity, Eyesight Rx was formulated to provide a quick and noticeable
vision improvement within hours or days of use.
Reports from users indicate enhanced clarity of vision, colors
being brighter, better focus, and overall improvement in close and
distance vision.

Research
Ophthalmology. 2013. Prevalence of myopia, hyperopia, and astigmatism
in non-Hispanic white and Asian children: multi-ethnic pediatric eye
disease study. Farsightedness was the most common refractive error in
both Asian and NHW children. However, compared with NHW children, myopia
was relatively more prevalent, and hyperopia less prevalent, among Asian
children. The prevalence of astigmatism was greatest in infants, and WTR
astigmatism predominated at all ages. Myopia showed relatively stable
prevalence across age groups, whereas hyperopia prevalence decreased
after infancy and then increased again in older age groups; however,
longitudinal studies are needed to evaluate refractive changes over time
in individual children.
A survey of clinical prescribing philosophies for farsightedness.
Optom Vision Sci. 2004.
Prescribing philosophies for hyperopic refractive error in symptom-free
children vary widely because relatively little information is available
regarding the natural history of hyperopic refractive error in children and
because accommodation and binocular function closely related to hyperopic
refractive error vary widely among children. We surveyed pediatric optometrists
and ophthalmologists to evaluate typical prescribing philosophies for
farsightedness. Practitioners were selected from the American Academy
of Optometry Binocular Vision, Perception, and Pediatric Optometry Section; the
College of Vision Development; the pediatric and binocular vision faculty
members of the colleges of optometry; and the American Association for Pediatric
Ophthalmology and Strabismus. Surveys were mailed to 314 participants: 212
optometrists and 102 ophthalmologists. A total of 161 (75%) of the
optometrists and 59 (57%) of the ophthalmologists responded. About one-third of
optometrists surveyed prescribe optical correction for symptom-free 6-month-old
infants with +3 D to +4 D farsightedness, but fewer than 5% of
ophthalmologists prescribe at this level. Most eye care practitioners prescribe
optical correction for symptom-free 2-year-old children with +5 D of
farsightedness, and this criterion for farsightedness decreases with age. Most
ophthalmologists (71%) prescribe the full amount of astigmatism and less than
the full amount of cycloplegic spherical component, and most optometrists
(71%) prescribe less than the full amount of both components. When prescribing
less than the full amount of astigmatism, eye care practitioners do not tend to
prescribe a specific proportion of the cycloplegic refractive error.
Pediatric eye care providers show a lack of consensus on prescribing
philosophies for children with farsightedness.
