Depends on what's blurry. If it's something close to you then you are far sighted. If it's something far away then you are near sighted.

What does minus 8 and minus 7 vision mean?
Those numbers are near sight perscriptions. The lower the number, the more "unfocused" or worse the vision is. If the number is positive, then it is a far sighted perscription, which is used in reading glasses. Hope this answered your question =) -A 14 year old girl with minus 8 vision. Myopia stinks =(

What is the definition of farsighted and nearsighted?
Hyperopia, also known as farsightedness, longsightedness or hypermetropia, is a defect of vision caused by an imperfection in the eye (often when the eyeball is too short or when the lens cannot become round enough), causing inability to focus on near objects, and in extreme cases causing a sufferer to be unable to focus on objects at any distance. As an object moves toward the eye, the eye must increase its power to keep the image in focus on the retina. If the power of the cornea and lens is insufficient, as in hyperopia, the image will appear blurred. Myopia also called near- or short-sightedness, is a refractive defect of the eye in which collimated light produces image focus in front of the retina when accommodation is relaxed. Those with myopia see nearby objects clearly but distant objects appear blurred. With myopia, the eyeball is too long, or the cornea is too steep, so images are focused in the vitreous inside the eye rather than on the retina at the back of the eye. The opposite defect of myopia is hyperopia or "farsightedness" or "long-sightedness" - this is where the cornea is too flat or the eye is too short. But someone can be both far-sighted and near-sighted.

What is far sighted?
Far-sighted can mean: 1) able to plan ahead 2) a vision disorder in which you can't see up close. A definition is "unable to see things clearly, especially if they are relatively close to the eyes, owing to the focusing of rays of light by the eye at a point behind the retina. The adjective is hyperopic. The opposite, near-sighted (nearsighted) means that you cannot see distant objects clearly.

What is the difference between near sighted and far sighted?
Near sightedness or myopia is a refractive defect of the eye lens in which the image is formed in front of the retina not on it. people with this defect can see closer objects clearly while distant ones are blurred..it may be due to excessive curvature of the eye ballFarsightedness or hypermetropia or hyperopia is a defect of vision in which closer objects appear to be blurred.it is because the eyeball is too short or the lens has incorrect curvature or the cornea is flat.If your far sited its easier for you to see things more clearly at a distance, if your short sighted its more clear when your closer to the object
What is the difference between myopia farsightness and nearsightness?
Myopia is when nearby objects are clear but far away objects appear to be blurry to the person. It is caused by either the eyeball has grown too long or the cornea is too steep. Hyperopia is caused by an imperfection in the eye, usually if the eye lens is not round enough or if the eyeball is too short. Close up objects are blurred and far away object are clear.
