hipemetropia is incorrectly written, and should be written as "farsightedness" being its meaning:
From the Greek hyper-: envelope, above, metron metrou: measurement and opsis opseos: vision, sight, eye. Defect of the eye that is flattened on the front which light rays convergan behind the retina instead of on it making the nearsightedness. You may be corrective extraocular or intraocular lenses, or laser on the cornea that modifies the convergence of light rays.
