दूरदृष्टि

noun

दूरदृष्टि meaning in English

Farsightedness; the ability to see distant objects clearly but not near ones.

Detailed Explanation

A refractive error of the eye (hypermetropia) where the eye focuses images behind the retina, resulting in clear vision of distant objects but blurred vision of nearby objects. In a figurative sense, it can also refer to foresight or long-term vision.

📝 Cultural Context

In medical contexts, 'दूरदृष्टि' specifically refers to hypermetropia. It is distinct from presbyopia (age-related loss of near focus), though the two often co-occur in older adults. Figuratively, it is used to describe strategic foresight.
