Experiencing Blurry Vision? Is It Something That You Need To Be Concerned For?

Are things blurry or out of focus? Vision difficulties are common nowadays and can make our daily life difficult. When looking at distant items such as road signs or television subtitles, some persons have fuzzy vision. Others, on the other hand, find it difficult to read things up close.

Most Common Causes Of Blurred Vision

Blurred vision can affect either one eye or both, and it can be treated or permanent. Any odd blurring can be a sign of other diseases or conditions, so it’s always a good idea to see a doctor or an eye specialist just in case.

Myopia
  1. Myopia

Also known as nearsightedness. People with myopia frequently see things near to them while ones further away are blurry. Sufferers may find that they have difficulty seeing lettering on far boards or screens, or seeing signs clearly while driving. It is caused by an eye defect that holds light in the front of the retina rather than directly on the retina. During an eye exam, our professional optometrist will diagnose myopia, and glasses or contact lenses will be prescribed.

 

2. Presbyopia

The first symptom of presbyopia is usually farsightedness. It is an eye defect that develops later in life when we are aging as a result of natural lens deterioration. The first signs of presbyopia show around the age of 40, and it is reported that by the age of 60, the situation has stabilised and is no longer detectable. It is not an eye defect in the traditional sense, but rather a natural result of the ageing process.

3. Hyperopia

Hyperopia’s symptom also farsightedness. In essence, the light that enters the eye cannot be properly focused. Common eye examinations, such as those used in schools, may not reveal hyperopia right away. If you have trouble focusing on close objects, we also suggest to see a professional optometrist for a full exam and evaluation.
