What Is Night Blindness?
3. Who Is Most at Risk for Night Blindness?
Night blindness may occur to almost anyone, but some are more likely to develop it than others. People who have a history of eye problems, especially genetic or degenerative issues, can be at high risk for developing night blindness. A family history of eye issues may also increase risk, even if the individual has not experienced problems before.
People without access to proper nutrition may suffer from night blindness due to a lack of essential nutrients, such as Vitamin A, that are important for the proper functioning of their eyes. The condition may also be more common in people as they age.
