2 . Eye conditions are quite common. Those who live long enough will experience at least one eye condition during their lifetime.

Globally, at least 1 billion people have a near or distance vision condition that could have been prevented or has yet to be addressed. Reduced or absent eyesight, if not received timely attention and care, can have major and long-lasting effects on all aspects of life, including daily personal activities, interacting (互动) with the community, school and work opportunities, the ability to access public services and general health status.

Reduced eyesight can be caused by a number of factors, including systemic diseases, age-related degeneration (退化), and infectious diseases. The majority of people with vision conditions are over the age of 50 years; however, vision loss can affect people of all ages. Blindness and vision damage more severely impact on the life of people in low-and-middle income settings where accessibility to most basic services and specific government-supported aids may be lacking.

Most eye conditions can be targeted effectively with preventive strategies. For example, preventative lifestyle changes among children, including a combination of increased time spent outdoors and decreased near-work activities, can delay the arrival and slow the progression of eyesight degeneration, which reduces the risk of high nearsightedness and its complications (并发症).

The treatment of eye conditions targets curing as well as addressing symptoms and progression. Surgery can remove cataracts (白内障) and visual correction can get rid of the majority of visual errors. Treatment for other eye conditions require longer-term follow -up to control the progression of the condition.

Treatment is also required and available for the majority of eye conditions that do not typically cause vision damage, such as dry eye, conjunctivitis and blepharitis. Treatment of these conditions is often directed at relieving the symptoms. Worthy of mention is that certain eye conditions that do not typically cause vision damage, may do so, if left untreated.
