Term: Hypermetropia

Definition:

Hypermetropia, also known as farsightedness or hyperopia, is a common vision condition where distant objects can be seen more clearly than objects that are near. It occurs when the eyeball is shorter than normal, causing light rays to focus behind the retina instead of directly on it. Hypermetropia can result in blurred vision when looking at close objects, eye strain, and headaches.

Sample Sentences:

1. John struggles to read books up close due to his hypermetropia.
2. Despite his hypermetropia, Tom enjoys birdwatching with his binoculars.
3. Sarah's hypermetropia was corrected with prescription glasses.
