farsighted
Farsighted is a term that is commonly used in two contexts: 1. In Optometry: It refers to a common vision condition, also known as hyperopia, where a person can see distant objects clearly, but objects nearby may appear blurry. This occurs if light entering the eye focuses behind the retina, instead of directly on it. 2. In General context: It describes a person who is able to anticipate and plan the future with good foresight, having long-range perspective or vision. It often connotes wisdom and the ability to make sound decisions for future benefits.
