Amblyopia, commonly known as a lazy eye, is a condition in which one eye has poorer vision than the other, even with spectacles. It typically starts in children when one eye doesn't receive a clear image, leading to its poor development.
Cataracts, a prevalent eye condition, can significantly impair a person's vision, especially as they age. They cause a noticeable blur, cloudiness, and a reduction in image contrast.
Flashing lights and floaters are common visual phenomena. They are often annoying and are a common cause for concern. These occurrences are usually associated with the eyes and can vary in appearance and severity.
Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is a common eye condition affecting 1 in 7 Australians over 50. Almost 15% of Australians over the age of 80 have some vision loss due to AMD.
