Blurred Vision Information

Sometimes both eyes can cause this but more often it is the result of one eye that has difficulty focusing. Blurry Vision is often a symptom rather than a condition, and as such the best route if you want to Protect Your Eyesight is to see a Eye Care Professional or Eye Care Specialist immediately.

Both ocular and neurological disorders can cause blurred vision, so although many of the Vision Problems that cause it are mild, it might also be a sign that something is wrong with your central nervous system.

Blurry Vision is a normal thing that happens with aging as well. As we grow, our cells are constantly regenerating, and as we get older this process becomes less efficient, breaking down and causing most of the problems associated with aging.

Wrinkled skin, loss of flexibility, and increased Myopia also known as nearsightedness or short sightedness or Hyperopia also known as "farsightedness" or "long sightedness" are commonly associated with aging, and unfortunately there is nothing you can do to stop it from happening, although there are ways to slow down the process.

Other than aging, Blurry Vision is also a common symptom of Glaucoma, eye injury, trauma, inflammation, retinal detachment, malignancy, and infection, to name a few. If you have a sudden onset of blurry vision, you should see a professional immediately, as it can be a warning sign of an impending stroke.

• Cataracts – Cataracts are a symptom of a breakdown in the regenerative processes of the Retina and cause a general cloudiness to settle over your vision. It also causes Poor Night Vision, an increased sensitivity to bright glares, and what is known as the “halo effect” which is blurry halos around lights.
• Glaucoma Information – This is an increase in pressure around the eye. It's one of the leading causes of blindness in America and can also cause night blindness, blind spots in the center of your field of vision, and decreased peripheral vision. Most of the time glaucoma is a slow, progressive disease, but every now and then it will strike suddenly. If this happens, you should seek immediate medical attention.
• Diabetic Retinopathy – This disease can cause blurry vision but only among people with diabetes. It's a complication of the disease that causes internal bleeding in The Retina. It's actually a fairly common cause of night blindness and regular blindness.
• Migraines – These headaches can cause a variety of different eye problems, including blurred vision, halos around lights, zigzag flashing light patters, and bright points of light. They usually occur at the onset of a migraine headache. If you experience all of these symptoms without the actual headache, it's an ophthalmic migraine.
• Optic neuritis – This is when the optic nerve becomes inflamed, which can happen either with an infection or with multiple sclerosis. This condition causes pain in the eye if you try to touch it through your eyelid, and some people report that it hurts just to move the eye around.
