The above statement is true.
Hypermetropia is also known as far-sightedness. In this defect, a person cannot see nearby objects clearly but can see distant objects. It is caused due to an increase in focal length in the eye lens. It can be treated using spectacles made from convex lenses of suitable focal length.
