What leads to poor eyesight?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Many possible causes: The most common is the need for glasses. The most common disease that leads to poor vision is diabetes in younger adults and macular degeneration in older adults. Glaucoma is the second leading cause of permanent vision loss. A regular visit with an ophthalmologist can help insure that your eyes stay in good shape.
