		Definition of hyperopia in English: hyperopianoun ˌhʌɪpərˈəʊpɪəˌhīpəˈrōpēə another term for hypermetropia Example sentencesExamples -  Whether myopia, hyperopia or astigmatism is present, surgical correction attempts to redirect light rays to accommodate the refractive error.
 -  In the treatment of ‘gross’ errors of refraction - myopia, astigmatism and hyperopia - LASIK is one of the procedures of choice.
 -  When hyperopia or long sight (plus lenses) is the pre-existing refractive condition the ability to focus near object is also lost at 40 years of age.
 -  Farsightedness, or hyperopia, is a common refraction problem causing blurred vision of close objects.
 -  As the positive number increases above zero, so does the severity of the hyperopia.
 -  In myopia, the growth process continues after correction of the initial hyperopia.
 -  Astigmatism may occur with myopia or hyperopia.
 -  In hyperopia, the laser indirectly steepens the central cornea by removing tissue from the periphery, thus increasing the cornea's focusing power.
 -  When LASIK is performed for hyperopia, the corneal surface is gently steepened by the laser.
 -  The glasses you wear for refractory errors like myopia, hyperopia and presbyopia should not be out of date.
 -  Refractive error not associated with amblyopia principally includes myopia and hyperopia.
 
 
 Derivativesadjectiveˌhʌɪpərˈɒpɪk  At birth, most infants are hyperopic, meaning images are focused behind the retina. Example sentencesExamples -  Among the list of abstracts that appear, one describes the author's review of the current status of hyperopic LASIK.
 -  The surgical procedure is similar for hyperopic patients, although the surgical technique varies to accommodate the flatter cornea.
 -  At birth, most infants are hyperopic, but when the eyes grow they usually become less hyperopic and by age 5-8 years emmetropic.
 -  The LASIK procedure can improve myopic and hyperopic vision with or without astigmatism in acceptable candidates.
