Understanding Vision Errors and Their Symptoms
Vision errors occur when light is improperly focused onto the retina. At Magrabi Health, we specialise in diagnosing and treating various types of refractive errors, ensuring you receive the most effective care to restore clear vision.
Common Types of Vision Errors
Myopia (Nearsightedness)
This affects distance vision, causing objects to appear blurry due to light focusing in front of the retina.
Symptoms: Headaches, eyestrain, squinting, and fatigue during distance activities.
Hyperopia (Farsightedness)
Hyperopia affects near vision, making it difficult to see close-ups. This occurs when light focuses behind the retina.
Symptoms: Headaches and eyestrain during close work.
Astigmatism
This is caused by an irregular corneal or lens shape, resulting in blurred or distorted vision.
Symptoms: Blurred vision, headaches, and difficulty seeing details at all Distances.
Presbyopia
An age-related condition, affecting near vision due to lens hardening.
Symptoms: Holding reading materials at arm’s length, eyestrain, and headaches during close-up work.
