Sub-Conditions
Clear vision depends on healthy eye muscles and properly aligned internal eye structures. Weakened eye muscles lead to crossed eyes or "lazy eye." Slightly misshapened lenses cause astigmatism and near- or farsightedness. Problems with the retina at the back of the eye affect color and night vision. Read about these common vision problems and others below.
