Dry eye syndrome – Smoking will change the tear film of your eyes causing chronic eye problems like redness, dryness, itchiness in the eyes leading to dry eye syndrome.
Diabetic retinopathy – If you have diabetes, then smoking can intensify the damage caused to the blood vessels in retina resulting in vision loss.
Glaucoma – Smoking damages the optic nerve in the eye. It will further affect your eye with increased pressure leading to blindness.
Birth defects – If you are smoking while pregnant, it can cause facial defects in your baby by increasing the risk of having a lazy eye.
Uveitis – By smoking you can develop Uveitis which is an inflammation inside your eye. It will also lead to complications such as glaucoma, cataract, and retinal detachment.
Many risks of vision-threatening problems can be reduced by quitting smoking. So it’s never too late to quit smoking and experience a healthy and happy lifestyle. Contact a SafeCare Certified Eye Doctor who can detect and treat your eye conditions early to avoid further damages to your vision.
