5. Blurred Vision
Blurred vision is an ocular symptom that can have many causes. When it occurs, your vision becomes less precise and you might experience difficulty to see fine details. Certainly, the primary cause of blurred vision is refractive errors such as farsightedness, nearsightedness, and astigmatism. However, blurry vision can also indicate more serious eyesight problems.
Retinal detachment is an important cause of blurred vision because it can cause permanent loss of vision if untreated. Before the detachment occurs, it is not uncommon to experience visual disturbances that can take the form of blurriness. Hence, if you develop sudden blurry vision with any of the other symptoms of retinal detachment, you should have your eyes examined immediately.
