Hyperopia (Long Sight)

What is Long Sight?

If you have needed help to focus close to since you were young but can see better far away then you have Long Sight.

Why do I have Hyperopia?

Hyperopia is normally inherited.

What can I do about Hyperopia?

Use Trayner pinhole glasses while you are reading. Start with 5 to 10 minutes a day and gradually build up to an hour or more. Over time this can help to change the shape of the eye reducing the long sight.
