Diabetes mellitus type 1: Juvenile/ Insulin dependent. Can´t be prevented. Diabetes M. type 2: Non insulin dependent; most frequent.
Hypothyroidism: Thyroid gland doesn´t produce thyroxine, reduces metabolic activity, not enough iodine
Hyperthyroidism: Excess production of thyroxine, + metabolic act. (Swallen and warm skin, bulging eyes, nervousness and tachycardia)
Astigmatism: Curvature of lens that produces a deformed image of the objects on the retina
Myopia: Eyeball too long, focus of distant objects isn´t formed on the retina, but in front of it, creating a blurry image
Hyperopia/Farsightedness: Eyeball too short, image of nearby objects is formed behind the retina, blurred
Presbyopia: GradualLoss of eye´s ability to focus and produce a clear image of nearby objects on the retina.
Colour blindness/Daltonism: Congetinal disease characterized by an inability to distinguish certain colours.
Conjuntivitis: Inflamation of the conjunctiva of the eye as a result of an infection or allergy.
Cataracts: Lens becomes opaque blocking passage of light
