There are the common visual symptoms that you must not take for granted:
1. Blurry Vision
If your vision is unclear and clouded, even with attempted treatment, it may be a symptom of more serious health issues. Increased pressure in the eyes and inflammation typically cause this symptom. If sight is lost completely in one eye it’s a clear indicator of a serious problem such as stroke, a sudden macular degeneration or a type of glaucoma.
2. Yellow Eyes
The liver uses a substance called bilirubin to filter proteins and oxygen in the body. If an excess of bilirubin happens due to liver disease it can affect the color of the conjunctiva in your eye. An unusual yellow appearance could be a sign of cirrhosis or hepatitis. For more information – read my previous post about early signs of liver damage and how to strengthen your liver.
