What is the difference between presbyopia and cataract?

Many elderly people will have blurred vision, but when it comes to the reasons, it is different.

The two main reasons are presbyopia and cataract. Today, I will talk to you about their similarities and differences.

First of all, cataract and presbyopia are closely related to age. Generally speaking, the older you get, the higher the incidence. Secondly, both of them have different degrees of vision loss.

But in addition, the difference between cataract and presbyopia is also very obvious.

First, it is unclear whether the cataract is far or near, as if it is separated by a layer of yarn, and the feeling of "seeing flowers in the fog"; Presbyopia is generally not clear at close range, but it can be seen clearly at a distance.

Second, if you are not afraid of trouble, presbyopia can be solved by wearing glasses, which usually does not cause other eye diseases; Cataract itself will lead to blindness, and it may also cause other malignant eye diseases such as glaucoma, which needs timely treatment.
