Blurry vision is very common. With causes ranging from the natural aging process to stroke, however, it’s important to find out why your vision is blurry.

In most cases, the cause is likely to be common and treatable — or even just a temporary change. In others, it can be the first sign of a serious health condition or permanent vision damage. By learning what is behind your blurry vision, you can get appropriate treatment. In most cases, these can include ophthalmologist to improve vision or focus and prevent blurry vision from happening again.

What Is Blurry Vision?

Blurry vision can be any loss of focus or sharpness in what you see. It may be in one eye or both, in just one area of vision (such as the outer field of your vision) or in everything you look at.

Furthermore, it can be blurry just for things that are close up or just for things far away, or just in certain situations.

In most cases, blurry vision is either temporary and mild or a simple sign that your sight is not perfect. In others, however — especially in cases of sudden blurry vision — it can signal a serious health concern. Minor or gradual changes in vision should be examined by an eye doctor.

If you have a sudden or dramatic change in vision, seek medical care right away.

Signs and Symptoms

Signs and symptoms of blurry vision include:

  • Unclear vision at any distance
  • Lack of detail or focus when you look at something
  • Fuzzy edges
  • Cloudy vision or indistinct vision
  • Floating spots across your field of vision
  • Squinting, rubbing your eyes or blinking often

These changes can come on very slowly or suddenly. They may also come and go, particularly if they are associated with sun exposure, eye strain, headaches or other health problems. They may also affect one or both eyes.

Other symptoms you may experience at the same time can be related to the cause of your vision problems. For example, eye redness and irritation may indicate you have an eye infection.

 Dizziness or slurred speech together with sudden blurry vision may indicate a stroke. Headache and vision changes may indicate you have a migraine starting.

Always seek professional medical care if you have worrying symptoms or sudden changes in vision.

Treatment For Blurry Vision

The treatment of blurry vision depends entirely on what is causing the blurring. Refractive errors like hyperopia, myopia and astigmatism can be corrected by using eyeglasses or contact lenses, the latter being a more comfortable option, but it’s important to keep your contacts clean.

 Put them incorrectly, and avoid leaving them in for a longer period than advised.

If you are looking for something more permanent, you can opt for Vision Care Eye Clinic in Port Harcourt which is available in Insight Vision Center. It is a quick, painless procedure that will give you better vision and the results will last longer too.

Blurry vision that is caused due to other health issues like diabetes can be addressed by taking the right medication. Make sure that you don’t strain your eyes too much and try to prevent fatigue.

Get adequate sleep and ensure that your eyes do not get dry. Use lubricating eye drops if necessary.
