A member asked:
I'm wondering if i am farsighted, why am i having trouble seeing distance?
3 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Because: Being farsighted does not mean you got see well in the distance, it means that your distance vision, without glasses or contacts, is better than your close vision. Many people who are farsighted are blurred in the distance but they are very very blurred for close objects.
