Hyperopia
MONDO:0004891A refractive error in which rays of light entering the eye parallel to the optic axis are brought to a focus behind the retina, as a result of the eyeball being too short from front to back. It is also called farsightedness because the near point is more distant than it is in emmetropia with an equal amplitude of accommodation. (Dorland, 27th ed)
Also known as: hypermetropia

Could a donated corneal lens fix farsightedness after cataract surgery?
Disease control OngoingThis trial tests whether implanting a fresh, donated corneal lenticule — a thin layer of corneal tissue — can safely correct residual farsightedness in people who already have an artificial lens implant after cataract surgery. The procedure uses a femtosecond laser to create a po…

Can a donated corneal lens correct hard-to-tract high hyperopia and astigmatism?
Disease control OngoingThis trial tests whether implanting a fresh corneal lenticule — a thin layer of donor cornea — can improve vision in people with high hyperopia (farsightedness) and high astigmatism. The lenticule is placed using a femtosecond laser, aiming to increase visual acuity and reduce as…

Laser touch-up may sharpen blurry vision after cataract surgery
Disease control By invitation onlyThis trial tests whether a laser procedure called Relex-Smile can correct leftover nearsightedness or farsightedness in people who had cataract surgery six months earlier. About 130 participants with blurry vision after receiving a trifocal lens implant will undergo the laser tre…

Glasses that fight nearsightedness: a new hope for kids?
Prevention OngoingThis study tests whether special 'peripheral focus-out' glasses can prevent nearsightedness (myopia) in Chinese children aged 6 to 8. Over two years, 160 children will wear the glasses at least 8 hours a day. Researchers will measure changes in their vision to see if the glasses …

New laser aims to sharpen vision for the farsighted
Symptom relief OngoingThis study tests the safety and effectiveness of the TENEO 317 excimer laser used in LASIK surgery to treat farsightedness (hyperopia) with or without astigmatism. About 140 adults aged 22 and older will receive the laser treatment in one or both eyes and be followed for 12 month…

AI predicts hidden glaucoma risk after LASIK in 10,000-Patient study
Knowledge-focused OngoingThis study uses artificial intelligence to predict true eye pressure after corneal refractive surgery like LASIK or SMILE. Standard eye pressure measurements can be falsely low after these surgeries, masking glaucoma risk. Researchers will analyze data from over 10,000 participan…
