hypermetropy
Hypermetropy, also known as hyperopia or farsightedness, is a common vision condition in which a person can see distant objects clearly, but nearby objects may appear blurred. It occurs as a result of the eyeball being too short or the cornea having too little curvature, so light entering the eye isn’t focused correctly.
Webster Dictionary
Hypermetropynoun
a condition of the eye in which, through shortness of the eyeball or fault of the refractive media, the rays of light come to a focus behind the retina; farsightedness; -- called also hyperopia. Cf. Emmetropia
