These are those patients who wear glasses with plus numbers. Some of them have lenses with very high numbers as seen in the pictures below

The eyes of the person wearing such type of glasses appear slightly bigger

These patients naturally have an eye defect that develops during the period from childhood to adulthood. Actually the length their eyeball is smaller than normal as seen in the picture below

See in this picture that the focusing system of the eye tries to make the image of the tree on the retina but cannot and the image either does not form at all or is very much blurred because the retina is far nearer to its actual place
