Blurring of vision is another common eye complaint, which one may brush off or think that glasses can resolve. However, it can be due to more serious issues. Blurring of vision can occur gradually or suddenly. If it is sudden, it is usually a cause for concern as it can potentially be due to underlying issues that may result in loss of vision if left untreated.
Possible Causes Can Include:
- Refractive errors (e.g. short-sightedness, astigmatism)
- Dry eye
- Cataract
- Glaucoma
- Age-related macular degeneration
- Infection of the retina or optic nerve
- Inflammation of the retina or optic nerve
- Systemic conditions affecting the retina (e.g. diabetes, high cholesterol)
- Stroke to the eye
Sudden blurring of vision is a medical emergency. Seek prompt attention at an eye specialist to rule out sight-threatening conditions.
