As we enter our 40s, some eye health problems become more common with age. These include changes in the optical structure that can impair vision, as well as new eye symptoms, such as presbyopia, changes in color perception, decreased tear production, and more.

The eyes often show age-related changes, especially when people reach the age of 60 or older. One of the most characteristic changes is farsightedness, cataracts or some other dangerous eye diseases that affect the quality of life.
