read or see images clearly\u2014 consequently causing eye strain, fatigue, and headaches, and sometimes even an eye turn.<\/p>\n<p>As a result of the increased stress that is placed on the eyes, many <a href=\"https:\/\/www.optometrists.org\/vision-therapy\/guide-vision-and-learning-difficulties\/vision-and-learning-difficulties-faqs\/\">academic struggles can arise<\/a>, specifically for reading and writing.\u00a0 In addition, high hyperopia can cause many children to struggle with attentional and behavioral issues, further increasing their academic challenges.<\/p>\n<h2><b>Hyperopia and eye turns<\/b><\/h2>\n<p>Accommodative <a href=\"https:\/\/www.optometrists.org\/a-guide-to-eye-turns\/esotropia-inward-eye-turn\/\">esotropia<\/a>, also known as \u201ccrossed eyes\u201d, is a vision condition that can be caused by hyperopia. This condition occurs when one eye <i>over <\/i>focuses while trying to compensate for the refractive error in the other eye. The act of over-focusing causes the eye to turn inwards towards the child\u2019s nose, and generally occurs when a child is tired, or trying to focus on a close object. Many children with an eye turn tend to rub their eyes, squint, or complain of headaches.<\/p>\n<p>Accommodative esotropia can develop as early as six months of age and until the child reaches seven.\u00a0 The <i>average <\/i>onset of accommodative esotropia is around two to three years of age. Accommodative esotropia can indicate hyperopia in children, though a proper diagnosis is crucial.<\/p>\n<h2><b>Can school vision screenings detect hyperopia?<\/b><\/h2>\n<p>Most parents mistakenly believe that if their child passes a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.optometrists.org\/vision-for-school\/are-school-vision-screenings-effective\/\">school vision screening,<\/a> then an eye exam conducted by an eye doctor is not necessary.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Unfortunately though, most vision screenings may not detect hyperopia, so a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.optometrists.org\/childrens-vision\/pediatric-eye-exams-2\/\">comprehensive eye exam<\/a> is actually essential.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Eye doctors use specialized tests and equipment to diagnose vision conditions that vision screenings simply cannot offer. During a comprehensive eye exam, your eye doctor may use a retinoscope to detect a refractive error, and a phoropter to measure the precise level of refractive error, including <a href=\"https:\/\/www.optometrists.org\/childrens-vision\/what-is-astigmatism\/\">astigmatism<\/a>. With these tools, your doctor can prescribe an accurate<a href=\"https:\/\/www.optometrists.org\/general-practice-optometry\/guide-to-eye-exams\/eye-exams\/how-is-my-optical-prescription-measured\/\"> optical prescription<\/a> to enable your child to see clearly and comfortably.<\/p>\n<h2><b>How is hyperopia treated?\u00a0<\/b><\/h2>\n<p>Several options are available to correct hyperopia and improve clear vision.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><b>Eyeglasses<\/b>. For most children with hyperopia, eyeglasses are the most common choice. Children with a higher optical prescription will need to wear glasses full time, while children with lower levels of hyperopia may only need to wear eyeglasses when reading or doing near work.<\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.optometrists.org\/eye-care-for-children\/what-are-bifocal-glasses\/\"><b>Bifocal\/Multifocal lenses<\/b><\/a>. These lenses contain two or more lens powers and are used for patients that present with different optical prescriptions\u2014 near vision and distance vision. These lenses are beneficial for children with focusing difficulties or accommodative esotropia.<\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><b><a href=\"https:\/\/www.optometrists.org\/general-practice-optometry\/optical\/guide-to-contact-lenses\/\">Contact lenses<\/a>.<\/b> Contact lenses provide clear vision at all distances and a wider field of view when compared to eyeglasses. However, contact lenses are placed directly on the eyes, and therefore require good hygiene practices to maintain eye health. Contact lenses are generally prescribed for older children.<\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.optometrists.org\/optical\/laser-refractive-surgery\/\"><b>Laser procedures<\/b>.<\/a> Laser procedures such as LASIK (laser in situ keratomileusis) or PRK (photorefractive keratectomy) are generally recommended for patients over the age of 20, mainly because the eye generally has stopped growing by this age. A laser procedure can provide clear vision by reshaping the cornea to improve the eye\u2019s focusing abilities.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>If your child complains of blurry vision, tiredness or headaches during near work activities, or if you notice any changes in your child\u2019s vision, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.optometrists.org\/practice-search\/\">schedule an eye exam<\/a> with an eye doctor.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>LEARN MORE:\u00a0<\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.optometrists.org\/childrens-vision\/guide-to-pediatric-eye-conditions\/\">Guide to Pediatric Eye Conditions<\/a><\/p>\n<p><em>A comprehensive eye exam will facilitate detection of hyperopia, and a precise calculation of your child\u2019s optical prescription.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>Hyperopia is a common vision condition that can affect a child\u2019s near vision acuity, and cause both academic and behavioral challenges.\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It is estimated that 13% of school age children are far-sighted, farsightedness, also known as long-sightedness or hyperopia, causes near objects or images to appear blurry.
