  2. Astigmatism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Astigmatism

    Other symptoms can include eyestrain, headaches, and trouble driving at night. [1] Astigmatism often occurs at birth and can change or develop later in life. [5] If it occurs in early life and is left untreated, it may result in amblyopia. [2] The cause of astigmatism is unclear, although it is believed to be partly related to genetic factors.

  3. Anisometropia - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anisometropia

    Anisometropia is caused by common refractive errors, such as astigmatism, far-sightedness, and myopia, in one eye. [6] Anisometropia is likely the result of both genetic and environmental influences. [7] Some studies suggest, in older adults, developing asymmetric cataracts may cause worsen anisometropia.

  4. Eye strain - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eye_strain

    A page or photograph which shows the same image twice, but slightly displaced–from a printing mishap, a camera moving during the shot, etc.–can cause eye strain due to the brain misinterpreting the image fault as diplopia and reacting by adjusting the sideways movements of the two eyeballs, in an attempt to fuse the two images into one.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Visual_snow_syndrome

    Astigmatism, although not presumed connected to these visual disturbances, is a common comorbidity. Migraines and tinnitus are common comorbidities that are both associated with a more severe presentation of the syndrome. [13] The cause of the syndrome is unclear. [3]

  7. Vision disorder - Wikipedia

    Such movements can cause irritation and fatigue to the eyes. [9] Glaucoma: occurs when the optic nerve is damaged and can result in irreversible vision loss, with the potential to pass undetected until this damage occurs. It is caused when aqueous humour fails to adequately drain from the eye, resulting in pressure build-up. [10]

  8. Refractive error - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Refractive_error

    When an eye focuses light correctly on to the retina when viewing distant objects, this is called emmetropia or being emmetropic. This means that the refractive power of the eye matches what is needed to focus parallel rays of light onto the retina. A distant object is defined as an object located beyond 6 meters (20 feet) from the eye.
