Question

Mention any two difference between Hypermetropia and Presbyopia?​

Answer 1

Hypermetropia or farsightedness:

1. This is an eye defect which occurs when an irregularly-shaped eye prevents light from properly lining up with the retina. The result is that it’s hard to see nearby objects.
2. People of any age, including babies, can get this refractive defect of the eye.

Presbyopia:

1. It is an age-related condition in which the lens of the eye becomes less flexible. For people with presbyopia adjusting focus between far-away and nearby objects is difficult.
2. This condition is most common in people between the ages of 40 and 50.
