Hyperopia
Nearsightedness, also known as myopia, is more common than farsightedness, also known as hyperopia.
Two common eye defects are myopia (nearsightedness) and hyperopia (farsightedness). Myopia is usually corrected with eyeglasses or contact lenses that help focus light correctly onto the retina. Hyperopia can also be corrected with eyeglasses or contact lenses, or in some cases with surgery such as LASIK to reshape the cornea.
It is nearsightedness and hyperopia is farsightedness.

Nearsightedness is called Myopia and farsightedness is called Hyeropia.
People with myopia (nearsightedness) or hyperopia (farsightedness) can also have astigmatism because these conditions relate to the overall shape of the eye and the curvature of the cornea or lens. Myopia and hyperopia occur when the eye is either too long or too short, affecting focal points. Astigmatism arises when the cornea or lens has an irregular shape, causing blurred vision at all distances. Since these issues can coexist, individuals may experience a combination of these refractive errors.
Hyperopia is the medical term for farsightedness.
