Changes of Aging Eyes: Disease and Care
As eyes age, several changes occur affecting vision and eye health:
Presbyopia: Difficulty focusing on close objects due to the lens becoming less flexible, typically starting around age 40.
Cataracts: Clouding of the eye's natural lens, leading to blurred vision and glare. Surgery to replace the lens with an artificial one is common.
Dry Eyes: Reduced tear production or poor tear quality, causing discomfort, itching, and sensitivity to light.
Floaters and Flashes: Increased presence of floaters (tiny specks or threads) and flashes of light due to changes in the vitreous gel inside the eye.
Macular Degeneration: Gradual deterioration of the macula (central part of the retina), impacting central vision. Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is a leading cause of vision loss in older adults.
Glaucoma: Damage to the optic nerve often due to elevated intraocular pressure, leading to peripheral vision loss and potentially blindness if untreated.
Understanding these changes and adopting proactive eye care habits can preserve vision and quality of life as eyes age. Early detection and management of age-related eye diseases are crucial for maintaining clear vision and overall eye health.
