Answer:
The eyeball is shortened.
Explanation:
Farsightedness, popularly known as difficulty seeing closely, is a common refractive problem, where the image in the eye forms after the retina rather than exactly over the retina, which hinders the brain's ability to process the image correctly. In farsightedness there is no difficulty in seeing objects from afar, but when you get closer, it becomes very difficult to focus on them.
The eyeball works the same way as a dark box: light enters the pupil and forms the image on the retina. The shape of the eye and cornea is perfect for the image to form in the right place (the macula), and then the information is sent to the brain by the optic nerve.
When you have farsightedness, the eyeball is a little shortened or the flatter cornea, so the image ends up forming after the retina, ie the image the retina captures is not correct.
