A person with hyperopia has a near point that is further away than the typical near point for someone their age, and hence the person is unable to bring an object at the typical near point distance into sharp focus. A

A normal eye is considered to have a near point at about 11 cm (4.3 in) for a thirty year old. The near point is highly age dependent (see
