Age-related changes in vision are a natural part of life, but with the right approach they can be slowed down and the usual comfort maintained for a long time. Ophthalmologist Maria Levina spoke about this in an interview with Pravda.Ru (18+).
According to the specialist, most people notice their first vision problems after forty years. At this stage, it is especially important to pay attention to changes and select corrective measures in time so that the quality of life does not decrease.
“Eye exercises for age-related vision loss do not help. The first thing to do is to come to an ophthalmologist in a timely manner. The first signs include difficulty reading, the need to turn on brighter lights, the habit of moving a book or screen further. These changes are natural and cannot be eliminated by exercises,” the specialist explained.
Levina noted that correctly selected glasses or lenses at each stage help to slow down the deterioration of vision and keep the eyes in working condition without unnecessary strain. The doctor assesses the state of the visual system, selects the optimal correction option, and the patient is able to continue his usual visual activity.
According to her, regular visits to an ophthalmologist after 40 years and timely diagnosis will help maintain eye health and a high quality of life.
