    Study Notes

    Eye Function and Sight

    • Eye-related conditions can significantly influence sight, affecting day-to-day activities.
    • Noticing vision-related symptoms is common due to heavy reliance on eyesight.
    • Blurred vision may stem from refractive errors, affecting clarity and focus.
    • Specific vision impairments include night blindness (difficulty seeing in low light) and color blindness (inability to perceive certain colors).
    • Sudden vision loss can lead to low vision, and in severe cases, complete blindness.
    • Disrupted vision can manifest as double vision (seeing two images of a single object).
    • Ocular migraines can produce auras, characterized by bright hazes or splotches in the visual field.
    • Photosensitivity, also known as photophobia, is an extreme sensitivity to light, causing pain or discomfort in bright environments.
