What is Hypermetropia?
Hypermetropia, or farsightedness, is a common condition where distant objects are seen clearly, but nearby objects appear blurry.

How Convex Lenses Correct Hypermetropia
In hypermetropia, the eyeball is too short or the lens is too flat, causing light to focus behind the retina. Convex lenses converge the light rays before they enter the eye, moving the focal point forward onto the retina for clear vision.
