Anisometropia

Anisometropia is a refractive error in which one eye has a higher refractive power than the other. This can be caused by various reasons, such as heredity, injury, eye disease, and poor lifestyle choices.

Anisometropia can cause vision problems, especially when working on a computer or reading. However, although this condition can be unpleasant, it is not dangerous to your health.

To treat anisometropia, special glasses or contact lenses are used to correct vision. You can also use special exercises to train the eye muscles.

It is important to remember that anisometropia is not a disease, but it can cause discomfort and blurred vision. Therefore, if you notice anisometropia, you need to consult an ophthalmologist for diagnosis and treatment.

Anisometropia (from ancient Greek ἀνίσος “different, uneven” + μέτρον “measure, meter”), also aniseikonia - a difference in the refractive ability of two eyeballs of one person. Throughout life, the visual acuity of an adult remains virtually unchanged. The indicator depends only on the anatomical features of the eyeball. In newborns, visual acuity completely depends on anisometropia - between the left and right eyes it can differ from 0.25 to 3.0 diopters. This is due to differences in height
