Any condition that affects the nerve of the eye or the brain like strokes or trauma can result in a loss of areas of peripheral vision.
This is clearly a dangerous thing for drivers or even pedestrians crossing the road if, for example, the left side of both eyes is missing.
Therefore, we do carry out routine check on most people over 40 and others who are potentially at risk of loss of side vision.
The front of the eye may look like a clear window and although it is just half a millimetre thick it has in fact many layers which are impossible to see with the naked eye.

This condition is defined as presbyopia and is a normal part of ageing.
Presbyopia is usually first noticed by difficulties reading in low light.
Often, you may find it will take longer for eyes to refocus from reading to distance and from distance to reading.
The distance of reading dictates which power you would require.
For example, looking at a computer screen will require a different power for reading a book.
