    Early or intermediate AMD may be asymptomatic, or it may present with blurred or decreased vision in one or both eyes. This may manifest initially as difficulty with reading or driving (especially in poorly lit areas). Other symptoms of AMD include distortion of vision and blind spots (especially in and around the central visual field).

    Humphrey visual field analyser. Humphrey field analyser ( HFA) is a tool for measuring the human visual field that is commonly used by optometrists, orthoptists and ophthalmologists, particularly for detecting monocular visual field. [1] The results of the analyser identify the type of vision defect.

  6. Anisometropia - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anisometropia

    Causes. Anisometropia is caused by common refractive errors, such as astigmatism, far-sightedness, and myopia, in one eye. [6] Anisometropia is likely the result of both genetic and environmental influences. [7] Some studies suggest, in older adults, developing asymmetric cataracts may cause worsen anisometropia.

    Ophthalmology. Exotropia is a form of strabismus where the eyes are deviated outward. It is the opposite of esotropia and usually involves more severe axis deviation than exophoria. People with exotropia often experience crossed diplopia. Intermittent exotropia is a fairly common condition.

  9. Keratoconus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Keratoconus

    Keratoconus (KC) is a disorder of the eye that results in progressive thinning of the cornea. This may result in blurry vision, double vision, nearsightedness, irregular astigmatism, and light sensitivity leading to poor quality-of-life. Usually both eyes are affected.

  10. Epiretinal membrane - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Epiretinal_membrane

    Ophthalmology. Epiretinal membrane or macular pucker is a disease of the eye in response to changes in the vitreous humor or more rarely, diabetes. Sometimes, as a result of immune system response to protect the retina, cells converge in the macular area as the vitreous ages and pulls away in posterior vitreous detachment (PVD).

    1.5 billion people (22%) [2] [4] Myopia, also known as near-sightedness and short-sightedness, [5] is an eye disease [6] [7] [8] where light from distant objects focuses in front of, instead of on, the retina. [1] [2] [7] As a result, distant objects appear blurry while close objects appear normal. [1]
