What is another word for absolute hyperopia?
Pronunciation: [ˈabsəlˌuːt hˌa͡ɪpəɹˈə͡ʊpi͡ə] (IPA) 
Absolute hyperopia, also referred to as simple hyperopia, is a refractive error that affects vision. It is characterized by difficulty in focusing on nearby objects, leading to blurred vision, eyestrain, and headaches. Synonymous terms for absolute hyperopia include hypermetropia, farsightedness, or long-sightedness. These terms describe a condition where the eye's focusing power is weaker than required, causing light rays to converge behind the retina instead of directly on it. While synonymous, these terms highlight the same visual impairment, emphasizing the need for corrective measures such as glasses, contact lenses, or refractive surgery to help individuals with absolute hyperopia achieve clearer vision and alleviate associated discomfort.
