Right eye:
Compound hyperopic astigmatism:
You have low hyperopia(farsightedness) combined with moderate astigmatism .
Farsighted means that the far vision is better than the near vision.
Astigmatism means that images from distant objects, entering the eye, are not focused at the same focal point. The astigmatism is at an axis of 97 degrees. In this prescription, the focal points are both destined to focus behind the retina, instead of on the retina (where the image would be destined to focus). Most commonly this is because the cornea is more curved in one direction than in the other, similar to the curvature of a football or teaspoon.
There is additional power, added for near vision, of 2.25 diopters.This is most commonly seen as a treatment for the difficulty with near vision usually encountered, for the first time, between the ages of forty to fifty.

Aided Va dist means that you can see perfect with correction on.
Near means that you can see a specific line on the near vision chart.

Good luck
