Dear Reader,
Having good eyesight is essential for almost every activity we do, but an estimated 93 million adults in the United States are at high risk for serious vision loss. Mayo Clinic Guide to Better Vision is a comprehensive guide to understanding common vision problems, preventing age-related eye disorders, and keeping your eyes healthy at every stage of life.
As we age, our eyes become more susceptible to common conditions like age-related macular degeneration, glaucoma, diabetic retinopathy and cataracts. Even younger adults can suffer from painful eye conditions like dry eyes, infected tear ducts, styes, floaters, pink eye and eye strain. Fortunately, many of these conditions are preventable, treatable, and even reversible.
Mayo Clinic Guide to Better Vision is based on the experience and advice from Mayo Clinic specialists in eye health. It is written in a clear, conversational style, supported by illustrations, photographs and evidence-based medicine.
This book covers the following and more: - Common eye issues
- Cataracts, glaucoma and macular degeneration
- Diabetic retinopathy and other retinal and optic nerve disorders
- Protecting and correcting your vision
- Living with low vision
Mayo Clinic Guide to Better Vision is a practical resource for making the most of your vision by keeping your eyes healthy and your eyesight sharp at any age. Steps you take now can help you see better for years to come. |
