If you are under 40 and farsighted you may need glasses for reading only . If you are Moderately farsighted you may need glasses for distance vision also. If you are severely farsighted you would need glasses for all distances. I would get the advice for yourself from a reputable eye care provider.
Hello- Farsightedness (or hyperopia) is a common condition, which generally means that your eye able to see more clearly at far distances, but not close-up. It can be corrected with glasses, contact lenses, Lasik, or other corrective eye surgeries. If you are above 60, you may also have a cataract, which can be corrected surgically along with farsightedness.
