Farsighted means you can see things from afar really well but things that are near you have a harder time seeing.

Farsighted people sometimes have headaches or eye strain and may squint or feel fatigued when performing work at close range.

Does blurred vision mean you are far sighted?

Blurred vision can be a symptom of various vision problems, including hyperopia (far-sightedness). Hyperopia occurs when the eye is shorter than normal or when the cornea has too little curvature, causing light rays to focus behind the retina instead of on it, leading to blurry vision. However, blurred vision can also be caused by other factors such as astigmatism, myopia, or eye diseases. It is important to have an eye examination to determine the exact cause of blurred vision.


What happens if the light is focused behind or in front of the retina?

If the light is focused behind the retina, it causes nearsightedness (myopia), where distant objects appear blurry. If the light is focused in front of the retina, it causes farsightedness (hyperopia), making close objects appear blurry. Both conditions can be corrected with glasses, contacts, or refractive surgery.
