VIP Eyes

There are many reasons why someone may need eyeglasses, especially as they age. However, three of the most common vision impairments that require corrective lenses are: Myopia: People with myopia, also known as “nearsightedness,” have difficulty seeing objects in the distance, even when objects close up look fine. Corrective lenses for myopia are usually concave (curved inward), projecting images back onto the retina for clearer vision. Hyperopia: Hyperopia is colloquially known as “farsightedness;” in contrast with myopia, farsighted people have more difficulty seeing objects up close than in the distance. Lenses for hyperopia are usually convex (curved outward), bending light to converge forward in the eye to land properly on the retina. Astigmatism: Astigmatism occurs when the eye is shaped irregularly, and may require either type of lens to correct.
