Answer:

convex lense

Step-by-step explanation:

people with hyperopia or hypermetropia are long sighted or farsighted, so what happens here is that light doesn't focus on the surface of the retina but behind it so the picture is moved forward by positioning a convex lense in front of a hypermetropic eye and is correctly centered in the retina.
