In our daily lives, we often find that the better our eyesight is when we are young, the earlier we experience glaucoma, which is the same principle.

People with good naked-eye vision in their youth often have more physiological hyperopia when they are young, which means that their developmental starting point tends to be hyperopia. As they develop, hyperopia gradually fades away (in humans, hyperopia decreases by 3 D from the age of 3 to 10), but it may be slightly residual compared to ordinary people. They rely on strong regulatory power to overcome it and can see far away very clearly.

As we age, the amplitude of regulation decreases and cannot meet the already slightly higher regulatory needs, leading to the earlier onset of symptoms of presbyopia.

Can our children take off their farsightedness glasses? This is one of the most common questions parents ask. Actually, this question is not easy to answer because individual differences may occur during development.

However, in general, children with hyperopia can reduce their hyperopia by at least 3-4D as they develop. Therefore, in clinical practice, we feel that hyperopia within+5D during initial glasses placement is more likely to be removed as they grow older. If the initial glasses placement is above, there will often be residual hyperopia as they grow older

Although it is said that, in clinical practice, the changes in farsightedness vary for each patient, making it difficult to predict the final outcome. After all, doctors are not prophets.
