The eye overconverges the nearly parallel rays from a distant object, and the rays cross in front of the retina. Farsightedness, or hyperopia, is the inability to see close objects clearly while distant objects may be clear. A farsighted eye does not converge sufficient rays from a close object to make the rays meet on the retina.
