  2. Eye strain - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eye_strain

    Eye strain, also known as asthenopia (from astheno- 'loss of strength' and -opia 'relating to the eyes'), is a common eye condition that manifests through non-specific symptoms such as fatigue, pain in or around the eyes, blurred vision, headache, and occasional double vision. [1]

  3. Keloid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Keloid

    Keloids tend to have a genetic component, which means one is more likely to have keloids if one or both of their parents has them. However, no single gene has yet been identified which is a causing factor in keloid scarring but several susceptibility loci have been discovered, most notably in Chromosome 15.

  4. Computer vision syndrome - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computer_vision_syndrome

    Some symptoms of CVS include headaches, blurred vision, neck pain, fatigue, eye strain, [1] dry eyes, irritated eyes, double vision, vertigo/dizziness, polyopia, and difficulty refocusing the eyes. These symptoms can be further aggravated by improper lighting conditions (i.e. glare, [2] [3] strong blue-spectrum backlights, [citation needed] or ...

  5. Photosensitivity in humans - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Photosensitivity_in_humans

    Light sensitivity or photosensitivity refers to a notable or increased reactivity to light. Apart from vision , human beings have many physiological and psychological responses to light. In rare individuals an atypical response may result in serious discomfort, disease, or injury.

  6. Macular degeneration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Macular_degeneration

    A digital screen does not radiate harmful energy against human eyes, but staring at the screen for a long time without pauses does increase eye strain. There is no evidence to support the claim that exposure to digital screens contributes to the risk of macular degeneration. [31] [16] [32]

  7. Photopsia - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Photopsia

    The retina lines the inside of the eye. It is light-sensitive and communicates visual messages to the brain. If the retina detaches, it moves and shifts from its normal position. This can cause photopsia, but can also cause permanent vision loss. Medical attention is needed to prevent vision loss.

  8. Biological effects of high-energy visible light - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Biological_effects_of_high...

    Blue light, a type of high-energy light, is part of the visible light spectrum. High-energy visible light (HEV light) is short-wave light in the violet/blue band from 400 to 450 nm in the visible spectrum, which has a number of purported negative biological effects, namely on circadian rhythm and retinal health (blue-light hazard), which can lead to age-related macular degeneration.

  9. Effects of long-term contact lens wear on the cornea - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Effects_of_long-term...

    A proposed explanation for the reduced sensitivity is the induced quiescence of free nerve endings following long term corneal exposure to contact lenses. [23] Long-term use of PMMA or thick hydrogel contact lenses have been found to cause increased eye irritability, photophobia, blurred vision, and persistent haloes. [18]
