what can aid vision?

Question

How do antiglare night vision glasses aid people who have difficulty driving at night?

Answer 1

Good dna: Decent health and nutrition, sunglasses, regular eye check ups depending on your age.

Answer 2

Eyeglasses: Of course eyeglasses, contacts, etc but good general health, wearing sunglasses to avoid damage from uv light, eye protectors when working with machines and good nutrition also help.

Answer 3

Magnifiers: Much appreciated by sherlock holmes, the hand magnifier is an inexpensive and under utilized tool that can help in the early stages of presbyopia, reading in dim light and other situations. Keep a card (fresnel) magnifier in your wallet, or travel with a pocket 10 d for better quality. For distance, a telescope or binoculars can help increase image size. Both near and far vision can be aided.

Answer 4

Chordoma diplopia: Chordomas are rare, malignant tumors arising in the spine but which can spread elsewhere. Most are large when first discovered and if located at the base of the skull can affect the nerves to the eye muscles leading to visual doubling (diplopia). This, along with headache, is the most common early symptom of chordoma.

Answer 5

May be retinal: This may signifiy a problem with the retina. When you blink it stresses the retina with rapid changes in light intensity and may uncover a weaker spot. Should be looked at with a dilated examination by an ophthalmologist.

Answer 6

Floater: If it moves, then it's likely a vitreous opacity. Can be noted when the eye moves or seen against a light colored background. Floaters can be observed but should watch for warning signs of retinal detachment.

Answer 7

Maybe: The blackness should be differentiated from blurring. True blackness is a different problem and should be addressed immediately. The blur is usually caused by glasses or dry eyes. These are usually easy to remedy by on ophthalmologist.

Answer 8

See an eye doctor: It is not uncommon for vision to blur when reading or staring at a computer for a long time. It is less common to have vision black out when performing these tasks. See an eye doctor soon to evaluate the cause of the diminished vision.

Answer 9

No: Glasses are designed to improve the focus of the eye and improve clarity. Sometimes patients who start wearing readers feel that their near focus becomes more difficult and to a certain extent this is true. But eventually, readers become essential whether glasses are used initially or not.

Answer 10

Well rounded diet: Deficiencies are unlikely with a healthy and varied diet. Eat lots of foods with beta carotene (yellow/orange), omega-3 acids for dry eye and vitamin e.

Answer 11

Not much: The evidence out there is that vision cannot be improved by diet. Those with very poor dietary intake can certainly suffer from vision loss related to malnutrition. And most vision problems are related to focus issues (nearsightedness, farsightedness, astigmatism and/or cataracts) which have not been found to respond to any degree to dietary changes. Eat a well-rounded diet, and stay healthy!
