sight loss
Sight loss refers to partial or complete reduction in the ability to see, caused by issues with the eyes, nerves, or brain that process visual information. It can result from various conditions such as age-related macular degeneration, glaucoma, diabetic retinopathy, or injury. Sight loss may affect central vision, peripheral vision, or both, impacting daily activities and independence. While some causes are treatable or manageable, others may lead to permanent impairment. Early detection and proper management are important to preserve vision and quality of life.
