Night blindness, as its name implies, is a condition in which vision becomes impaired during the night or in times of darkness, making it difficult, and in some cases, impossible to distinguish objects or read signs.

The primary symptom of night blindness is impaired vision during the night or in times of darkness. Objects become difficult to distinguish and streets signs become blurry and, in some cases, unreadable. In addition, a blurring halo can appear over objects that are lit, making them difficult to see. In many cases of night blindness, these symptoms disappear during daylight.

There are two primary causes of night blindness. In many cases, it is due to poor diet and nutritional deficiencies, especially a lack of vitamin A and/or zinc. In others, it is due to a more serious eye condition known as retinitis pigmentosa, which is caused by a deterioration of the eye cells in the retina that distinguish light and dark, known as rods.

Caution: If you suspect you suffer from retinitis pigmentosa, seek medical attention immediately, because, if left untreated, it can lead to a progressive loss of sight and even complete blindness.

There are natural cures for Night Blindness that do not involve the use of pharmaceutical drugs. They involve restoring the biochemical balance of the body, and making dietary and lifestyle changes designed to improve one's general health.
