The ophthalmologist called the main causes of vision impairment

Doctor of Medical Sciences Tatiana Shilova said that often fuzzy vision is associated with nearsightedness, farsightedness or astigmatism. About this "MK in Pskov" reported in the Infectious Hospital of Pskov.

In children and adolescents, the main reasons are heredity, long work with gadgets without interruptions and rare walks.

After 40 years, the lens loses elasticity, and it is more difficult for the eye to focus on close objects. At an older age, a frequent cause is cataracts, clouding of the lens.

Vision is also worsened by glaucoma, retinal disease, diabetes, hypertension and dry eye syndrome.

If you start to squint, worse distinguish details or eyes quickly get tired when reading, do not postpone a visit to a specialist.

Timely diagnosis and properly selected glasses or lenses will help to preserve vision.
