There are different types of eye complications and vision disturbances, such as scotomas,
halos, and blurred vision. Blindness is among some of the severe eye complications. Regular eye
checkups are vital for those with eye complications, especially those above 65 years of age.

distortion and blurredness in some of the words, making it difficult for him to read

difference in vision during the day and night and also finding out if there is pain associated with

glare (Raman,2019).

glaucoma, temporary arthritis and floaters. Several laboratory tests ought to be carried out to
determine the cause of his decreased vision. These include; test for the pressure of the eye,
