The cause of blurry eyes
Quote from
Cleveland Clinic
, a number of eye health experts say that blurred vision is one of the most common complaints reported by patients.
The causes are also varied, ranging from mild disorders such as refractive disorders to serious problems such as nerve disease and blood vessels.
For more details, here are some of the causes of blurry eyes that need to be known.
1. Refraction abnormalities
Refractive abnormalities are the most common causes of the eye
blur
.This condition occurs when the eye is unable to focus the light properly, so that the shadow of the object looks blurry.
There are four types of refraction disorders, ranging from nearsightedness (myopia), farsightedness (hypermetropia), astigmatism, and presbyopia (decreased ability to see close due to aging).
Changes in the shape of the cornea or eye lens are the main causes and can usually be overcome by the use of glasses or contact lenses.
2. Macular degeneration
Macular degeneration occurs when the macular function decreases.Macules are the middle part of the retina that is sensitive to light decreased.
This condition causes the central vision to be blurry, making it difficult to see the details or colors clearly.Macular degeneration is generally experienced by elderly people.
3. Cataract
Siloam Siloam Hospital, cataracts are characterized by eye lenses that become cloudy, so that light is difficult to enter and vision becomes blurry.
This disease often attacks the elderly.However, eye injuries can also be the trigger.
4. Eye infection
Infection caused by bacteria, viruses, or fungi can make red eyes, pain, and blurry vision.Common types of infections include keratoconjunctivitis (combined conjunctivitis and keratitis), uveitis, and keratitis.
Transmission can occur through direct contact or due to eye injuries.
5. Glaucoma
Glaucoma is damage to the optic nerve that can cause blindness.
In the early stages, this condition often does not cause symptoms.However, at an advanced stage, sufferers can experience sudden blurry vision accompanied by headaches, dizziness, nausea, or eye pain.
There are two main types of glaucoma, namely the open angle and the closed angle.
6. Diabetes
High blood sugar levels in diabetics can affect eye health.One of them is diabetic retinopathy, namely damage to blood vessels in the retina.
If severe, this condition can cause macular edema (swelling in macula) which makes vision more blurry.
7. High blood pressure
Hypertension can trigger blockage of blood vessels or mini-strokes in the eye.This condition can make vision blurred in one eye.
High blood pressure is one of the risk factors of serious diseases such as stroke.
8. Nerve and blood vessel disorders
Head injury, rupture of blood vessels, stroke, or brain tumor can affect the nerves and blood vessels that are connected to the eye.Symptoms include severe headaches accompanied by blurred vision.
9. Migraine
Migraine is often accompanied by blurred vision, flash of light, bumpy lines, or bright spots in the field of view.This usually appears before migraine attacks and can survive until the pain subsides.
Blurred eyes are more common.However, that does not mean it can be ignored.
If vision is suddenly blurry, especially with other symptoms such as dizziness, nausea, or temporary loss of vision, immediately consult an eye doctor.Early detection and proper treatment can help prevent further damage to the eye.
