Question

which term means \farsightedness; light rays focus behind the back of the eye resulting in loss of distance visual acuity\? hyperopia photophobia exotropia presbyopia

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

Hyperopia is the medical term for farsightedness. In hyperopia, light rays focus behind the retina (the back of the eye), leading to difficulty seeing nearby objects clearly (loss of near - visual acuity, but can also affect distance vision in some cases). Photophobia is an extreme sensitivity to light. Exotropia is a type of strabismus where one eye turns outward. Presbyopia is age - related farsightedness due to loss of flexibility of the lens.
