Types of REFRACTIVE ERRORS

In this insightful episode of Param Chaudhary's Podcast @BeYouwithParam, Dr. Rahil Chaudhary shares valuable insights on one of the most common vision problems: refractive errors.

Refractive errors include Myopia, Hyperopia, Astigmatism, and Presbyopia, each affecting vision differently.
➡️Myopia, or nearsightedness, occurs when distant objects appear blurry and are denoted by a negative (-) lens power. If the prescription is below 6D, it is classified as simple Myopia, while anything above 6D is considered Pathological Myopia, potentially leading to further complications.

➡️Hyperopia, or farsightedness, is associated with a positive (+) lens power. In this condition, distant vision is clear, but nearby objects appear blurry.

➡️Astigmatism - On the other hand, it is caused by an irregularly shaped cornea, leading to blurred vision at all distances. When the cornea is shaped more like a rugby ball than a basketball, it results in a cylindrical lens prescription.

➡️Lastly, Presbyopia typically affects people as they age, when the lens loses its ability to focus on both near and distant objects, often requiring the use of reading glasses.

Tune in to this episode to learn more about these common eye conditions, their causes, and effective management strategies!
