Mary's Story... I was initially diagnosed with pseudo-Cushing's in 1995. Symptoms got worse, and in 1997 I tricked an endocrinologist into finding a pituitary tumor. I had transsphenoidal resection of the tumor in September, 1997, and it tested grossly positive for ACTH.
Farsightedness: An Overview. Farsighted (also called hyperopia) is a term to describe an eye condition that lets you clearly see objects far or distant in your field of vision, while objects that are near appear blurry or hazy.
Those who are nearsighted -- a condition also known as myopia -- can see nearby objects but things that are far away appear blurry. Bifocals are designed for people who need both near and farsighted vision correction.
