How does the eye respond to light rays to manifest long sightedness?

In long-sightedness, or hyperopia, the eye focuses light behind the retina due to a shorter than normal eyeball or a less curved cornea. This results in difficulty seeing close objects clearly. The eye can compensate by altering the shape of the lens to focus the image correctly on the retina, or by over-focusing, which can cause eyestrain and headaches.
