Many people face such an unpleasant phenomenon as loss of vision.

We will talk about the reasons for this phenomenon.

Vision problems can be caused by high blood pressure, genetics, and excessive use of gadgets. RIA Novosti reports details with reference to Olga Dobroradnykh, head of the eye microsurgery department at L. A. Vorokhobov City Clinical Hospital No. 67.

It is noted that many people currently strain their eyes with screens, computers, and phones. Such strain often leads to vision problems.

According to Dobroradnykh, visual acuity can also decrease for other reasons, such as illnesses, including hypertension and diabetes.
