Blurry Vision

When many people first realize they are having eye troubles, one of the things they may notice is having blurry vision. Blurry vision is a common symptom of a number of different eye conditions. It may be caused by a temporary condition such as pregnancy or it may be caused by the need for corrective lenses. It may also be an indicator of something more serious. If you are experiencing blurry vision, make an appointment to see an optometrist on our optometry team at Eyes on Hayden in Scottsdale, AZ.

Here are some causes of blurry vision:

Refractive Errors

Many common eyesight problems create blurry vision that can be corrected by wearing prescription lenses or contacts:

Myopia

With this condition, things up close look fine (near-sightedness), but something in the distance is blurry.

Hyperopia

This is the opposite condition from Myopia and is commonly called far-sightedness. You can see perfectly well for things that are far away. However, things up close, such as reading text, are out of focus.

Astigmatism

With this condition, images at many distances may seem a bit blurry and distorted.

Presbyopia

This is age-related loss of near vision. It is common and why most people need to use reading glasses as they get older.

Eye Diseases

Serious eye diseases such as glaucoma, cataracts, and macular degeneration may cause blurry vision.

Glaucoma

You may not experience any warning signs of having glaucoma. The effect of losing your eyesight may be so gradual that you do not notice. With glaucoma, the optic nerve is damaged and that damage usually comes from high pressure in the eye. It may, however, also be present with normal eye pressure. As the condition progresses, you may experience blind spots in your side vision, tunnel vision, halos around lights, and blurred vision.

Cataracts

A cataract creates a cloudy lens resulting in blurred vision. It is like looking at everything through the bottom of a dirty glass.

Macular Degeneration

This disease is characterized by having blurry vision and vision loss in the center of the visual field. This can happen over time and an eye exam can help you find it early.

Testimonials

  • I have worn contact lenses for years but due to my strong near-sighted prescription with high astigmatism could get neither the comfort nor vision very good in standard gas permeable lenses or in soft lenses. I had reverted back to wearing glasses most of the time until Dr. Krywko recommended the SynergEyes lenses. They work great for me and I can finally wear contacts again! Thank you, Dr. Krywko!

  • Dr. Candria Kryko is a wonderful OD. I was seen by Dr. Kryko in Scottsdale recently for an eye exam/contact lens fitting. She is extremely pleasant, attentive, and she took her time to give me a thorough exam and answer all of my questions. Dr. Kryko gave me recommendations on contacts and eye drops, as well, she gave me tips on how I can save on some of my contact expenses. She was professional, attentive, took the time to explain what was needed, and was simply nice to be around. I recommend Dr. Kryko.

  • My entire family have been seeing Dr. Krywko for years. The professionalism, care and focus are over the top. I was told by an optician I would not be a likely candidate for contact lenses. However with Dr. Krywko's patience and wisdom she was able to fit me for contact lenses that work perfectly! I am thrilled..........Plus, I also have the most gorgeous frames (when I do not want to wear my contacts. ) I receive comments every time I wear them, " where did you get your glasses!" Dr. Kryko just received the newest styles......I'm in trouble..........
