The Aging Eye[edit | edit source]
As we age, our sensory modalities (including vison) show gradual deterioration.
Older people must adapt to problems such as reduced visual field, decrease in visual acuity, delayed dark adaptation and decreased power of accommodation resulting in presbyopia. Taken together, these different visual problems all lead to impairment of visual function.
Then in addition, a large number of older people also suffer from medical conditions affecting function of the eye, such as glaucoma, Age Related Macular Degeneration, diabetic retinopathy.
