What type of lens is used in spectacles to correct long sightedness?
Convex lenses, which magnify, correct hyperopia. Below, is a previous wiki answer to this question in detail.Convex are thicker in the middle and thin out at the edges. These lenses magnify and are used for reading glasses and to correct long-sightedness (hyperopia).Concave lenses are thin in the middle and thick towards the edges. These lenses shrink things and are used to correct short-sightedness (myopia).A good example of this is to take a spoon and look at your reflection in it. Looking at the concave side of the spoon (the front) will make you look smaller, looking at the convex side of the spoon (the back) will make you look biggeRead more: Which_type_of_lens_magnifies_-_convex_or_concave
Astignatism can it be cured?
Yes, it can. There are many options to help correct it. e.g. eye surgery, contact lenses and glasses. Only wear contact lenses if you have no reaction. Glasses will change the shape of the eye, because it corrects the vision. The shape of the eye will change from a rugby ball shape, into a sphere. My advice, based on experience, is get a pair of weak glasses perscribed to you, by your optician, and wear them when you need them/ when carrying out focused activities eg. reading. If you wear stronger glasses all the time, your eyes will become weaker. Also, overtime, your eyeball will change and so will the shape, but the glasses will help speed up the process
