A member asked:
How did my daughter get farsighted?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
genetics: Many children are farsighted at birth and then as the eyeball grows, will become less and less farsighted. If you or your husband are farsighted, then your daughter is likely to be also. How much hyperopia are you talking about?
