Abstract

- Ocular tissue transparency is dependent on the regular lattice configuration of lens and corneal fibres of uniform diameter. Ageing is associated with degeneration of both lens and cornea, which lose some of their structural order and eventually their transparency, though this process is not uniform. The structural changes are local and result in ocular media opacities. When the opacities increase in number and extension, they begin to affect visual acuity. As the loss of acuity becomes clinically significant, we speak of clinically relevant cataract. Retinal exposure to light diffused by intraocular light scattering induces optical glare, one of two forms of glare. The other form is transient glare--i.e., glare due to adaptation problems in an environment with rapidly changing ambient luminance. Contemporary society is characterised by increasing emphasis on visual information in such forms as texts, icons, signs and symbols. The computer revolution has been accompanied by further stress on the importance of the detection and interpretation of written instructions.
