| Farsightedness : Farsightedness is having a harder time seeing objects that are close than things that are far away.The term is often used to describe the need for reading glasses as you get older. However, the correct term for that condition is presbyopia. Although related, presbyopia and hyperopia (farsightedness) are different conditions. People with hyperopia will also develop presbyopia with age. | |
