  2. Glare (vision) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glare_(vision)

    Disability glare impairs the vision of objects without necessarily causing discomfort. [4] This could arise for instance when driving westward at sunset. Disability glare is often caused by the inter-reflection of light within the eyeball, reducing the contrast between task and glare source to the point where the task cannot be distinguished.

  3. Refractive error - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Refractive_error

    When refractive errors in children are not treated, the child may be at risk of developing ambylopia, where vision may remain permanently blurry. [33] Because young children typically do not complain of blurry vision, the American Academy of Pediatrics recommends that children have yearly vision screening starting at three years old so that unknown refractive errors or other ophthalmic ...

  4. Lens flare - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lens_flare

    Lens flare on Borobudur stairs to enhance the sense of ascending. A lens flare is often deliberately used to invoke a sense of drama. A lens flare is also useful when added to an artificial or modified image composition because it adds a sense of realism, implying that the image is an un-edited original photograph of a "real life" scene.

    Blurry vision and headaches are symptoms of astigmatism. Astigmatism, a disorder that affects how the eyes focus light, can be exacerbated at night. Blurry vision and headaches are symptoms of ...

  6. Astigmatism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Astigmatism

    The main cause of astigmatism is changes in the curvature of the cornea. [37] When left untreated, astigmatism causes people to have a lower vision-related quality of life. Some factors that lead to this are a decrease in vision quality and an increase in glare and haloes. [33]

  7. Computer vision syndrome - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computer_vision_syndrome

    A 2017 randomized controlled trial evaluated macular carotenoid supplements (lutein, zeaxanthin, and mesozeaxanthin) in people with high screen time usage. The supplement group had statistically significant reduction in self-reported headache, eye strain, eye fatigue and sleep complaints, but no reduction in neck strain or blurry vision. [9]

  8. Veiling glare - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Veiling_glare

    Veiling glare in a photograph from Cassini (spacecraft) Veiling glare caused by stray light reflecting inside the camera or scattering in the lens. Veiling glare is an imperfection of performance in optical instruments (such as cameras and telescopes) arising from incoming light that strays from the normal image-forming paths, and reaches the focal plane. [1]

  9. Aberrations of the eye - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aberrations_of_the_eye

    The appearance of visual complaints such as halos, glare and monocular diplopia after corneal refractive surgery has long been correlated with the induction of optical aberrations. Several mechanisms may explain the increase in the amount of higher-order aberrations with conventional excimer laser refractive procedures: a change in corneal ...
