Q
What is HYPEROPIA?
A
- FAR Sightedness
- The cornea DOES NOT refract light properly
- Point of focus falls BEHIND the retina.
2
Q
What are the SYMPTOMS of HYPEROPIA?
A
- CHRONIC Use of CILIARY Muscles
- ASHTENOPIC Symptoms
a. Headaches
b. Burning Sensation
c. Blepharoconjunctivitis
d. Blurred Vision
e. Rapid Fatigue - ESOTROPIA
3
Q
What is the DIAGNOSIS for HYPEROPIA?
A
OPHTHALMOSCOPIC Examination of the FUNDUS
- Shows SIGHLTLY Blurred Optic Disc that’s ELEVATED
- TORTUOUS Retinal Vascular Structures
- OVERUSE of CILIARY Muscle leads to RESIDUAL Accommodation where Muscle is UNABLE TO RELAX - EVEN AFTER Hyperopia is corrected with PLUS LENSES
