What is hyperopia?
A hyperopic eye is a small eye, such that images focus behind the eye. It is treated with plus power lenses that pull the image forward onto the retina.

corneal curvature can be the cause in different case. so there is two causes: small eye and corneal curvature. correct me if i’m wrong
You have axial and refractive hyperopia and myopia.
In AXIAL hyperopia/miopia the EYE is TOO SHORT/LONG.
In REFRACTIVE hyperopia/myopia the REFRACTIVE POWER of the eye (mostly of the cornea) is TOO SMALL/BIG.
