Hypermetropia - Long sight
The image on the left shows a hypermetropic eye. Hypermetropia means long sight and is where the image is formed behind the retina. This could be because the eye is too short, or the cornea or crystalline lens does not refract the light enough.

A hypermetropic person has blurred vision when looking at objects close to them, and clearer vision when looking at objects in the distance.
