Whether you notice it while driving, hiking in the mountains or doing other activities. Television doesn’t seem as good as it used to be. This visual deterioration must not be taken lightly, as every second of the perception of a traffic sign counts, especially when driving.
You should pay attention to which symptoms appear with impaired distance vision in order to get a first idea before an initial examination. Cataracts, for example, can be a cause. All important information can be found here!
Especially when driving, people often notice an increasingly difficult distance vision. Oncoming cars seem increasingly fuzzy in the distance. When driving, this is of course a problem, as the reaction time also suffers. Driving is thus becoming increasingly dangerous.
But how and why the problem with distance vision occurs is unclear to most people.
You must have noticed it yourself. It does not get easier, but more and more difficult and borders on the impossibility of perceiving another vehicle in the distance. Only when the car is close enough, it seems to be in focus. Before, it was usually just a coloured lump with lights.
This loss of vision can be due to various reasons. In addition, many others have other symptoms. Some of these can have a huge impact on your everyday life.
Anyone who feels restricted in their view when driving their car will certainly have this problem in everyday life. If you are not sure, you should look into the distance. You will surely notice that the terrain looks blurry. Focusing no longer works as it should or once worked. This can also lead to restrictions in the social environment. It is never pleasant not to recognize things that appear clear to others.
I know this myself. I was always uncomfortable when a friend of mine referred to something in the distance and I could not perceive it despite a strenuous look. One finds oneself in such situations all too often and that is anything but pleasant.
If you experience severe glare from other car lights, this can also be very unpleasant. In addition, it is of course an additional danger. Driving at night and not being able to perceive imminent dangers because they dazzle the light is dangerous. Also, cars were already drifting off the road due to an increased sensitivity to light. Such situations rarely end well for the person concerned.
You may have already noticed. Colours appear faint and unclear. It looks like the colors around you have decreased in strength. The world looks simply dull and almost dreary.
Many people also complain of a gray, even milky veil in their perception of such symptoms. To the person concerned, it seems as if everything he sees is surrounded by such a gray veil. From time to time, this veil can also become more cloudy and worse. The world seems progressively grayer, paler, and murkier. Everyday life becomes almost unbearable. These signs are usually cataract symptoms. These begin gradually in old age and get worse.
No. Many people may initially believe it is only a temporary apparition or even imagination, but this is not true. Such symptoms do not simply arise from one’s own imagination. They are quite real and to be taken seriously.
Why you see this may be for the following reasons:
If it is the case that you can no longer perceive colors and contrasts as well as a grayish veil, it is possible that you suffer from cataracts.
Even if you have a refractive error or cataract, you can’t do anything about it. See an ophthalmologist and have an examination. This will advise you fully and initiate ways to help you. For example, cataract surgery is a long-term option.
Glasses and contact lenses are tools that help you to see clearly again. As well as both forms work, they are not perfect. It takes some time for your eye to get used to the vision aid. The consequences can be headaches, eye pain or even fatigue.
In addition, glasses must be properly adjusted so that they can be worn without problems and difficulties. Because the glasses can be too tight at the temples and create an enormously uncomfortable feeling of pain. The bridge of the nose can also hurt due to too tight glasses.
The best alternative to spectacle lenses or contact lenses would be to have your eyes lasered. In this case, refractive error can be completely corrected.
For the treatment of cataracts, another special form of laser treatment is required.
Here, the grey cataract laser replaces the old and clouded lens with a new artificial one. This lens exchange allows you to regain your original vision. In addition, the cataract cannot occur again. We will be happy to advise you personally in our laser eye centre in Karlsruhe or in the laser eye centre in Stuttgart.
