  2. Blurred vision - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blurred_vision

    Alcohol intoxication can cause blurred vision. Use of cycloplegic drugs like atropine [4] or other anticholinergics cause visual blur due to paralysis of accommodation. [3] Cataracts: Cloudiness over the eye's lens, cause blurring of vision, halos around lights, and sensitivity to glare. [5] It is also the main cause of blindness worldwide. [2]

  3. Refractive error - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Refractive_error

    People with hyperopia have blurry vision when viewing near objects because the eye is unable to focus the light sufficiently. This can be corrected with convex lenses, which cause light rays to converge prior to hitting the cornea. [13] Presbyopia: When the flexibility of the lens declines, typically due to age. The individual would experience ...

  4. Visual impairment - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Visual_impairment

    Visual or vision impairment (VI or VIP) is the partial or total inability of visual perception.In the absence of treatment such as corrective eyewear, assistive devices, and medical treatment, visual impairment may cause the individual difficulties with normal daily tasks, including reading and walking. [6]

    Cataract risk factors. Age is the most common cause of cataracts. Having a family history of cataracts raises your risk for getting them, too. Other risk factors include: Lifestyle-related risk ...

  6. Presbyopia - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Presbyopia

    Corrective lenses provide vision correction over a range as high as +4.0 diopters. People with presbyopia require a convex lens for reading glasses; specialized preparations of convex lenses usually require the services of an optometrist. [15] Contact lenses can also be used to correct the focusing loss that comes along with presbyopia.

  7. Cataract - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cataract

    Bilateral cataracts in an infant due to congenital rubella syndrome. Signs and symptoms vary depending on the type of cataract, though considerable overlap occurs. People with nuclear sclerotic or brunescent cataracts often notice a reduction of vision. Nuclear cataracts typically cause greater impairment of distance vision than of near vision.

  8. Vision disorder - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vision_disorder

    Diabetic Macular Edema (DME): is an eye disease specifically related to diabetes, occurring due to fluid build-up in the retina as a result of sustained high blood glucose levels. It can result in blurred vision and vision loss. [5] Eye floaters and spots: where visible cloud-like images appear to "float" in an individual's field of vision. [6]

  9. Aberrations of the eye - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aberrations_of_the_eye

    Conventional (not Aspherical) IOLs give better depth of focus and better near vision. The reason for improved depth of focus in conventional lenses is linked to residual spherical aberration. The small improvement in depth of focus with the conventional IOLs enhances uncorrected near vision and contribute to reading ability. [15]
