Perhaps you have a chronic eye disease, such as glaucoma or age-related macular degeneration. Maybe you suffer from low vision, which could result from cataracts that have yet to be removed. Or perhaps you are dealing with eye herpes, progressive keratoconus or a refractive error called astigmatism?
