What is hyperopic astigmatism?

In astigmatism the abnormally curved cornea causes the lighted object to strike the retina in two different spots causing vision blurring for objects close or far away. Hyperopia is caused by distant objects being focused behind the retina making objects up close appear out of focus.

What is mixed astigmatism?

There are two types of astigmatism. Hyperopic (farsighted) astigmatism causes some rays to focus behind the retina and myopic (nearsighted) astigmatism causes some rays to focus in front of the retina. Mixed astigmatism is when an eye has both types of astigmatism at the same time.
