What is The Aging Eye and Age-related Ocular Pathologies about?
During aging, the eye undergoes several structural and functional changes that increase vulnerability to ophthalmic diseases. A significant proportion of sight-threatening eye diseases is age-related. This chapter discusses the changes in the aging eye and the associated pathologies starting from the ocular surface moving towards the retina. It reviews the main age-related diseases of the eye, including dry eye disease, glaucoma, cataract, and age-related macular degeneration in terms of their age-related pathogenesis, clinical findings, and management. Recognizing and correctly managing age-related ocular pathologies is important for maintaining independence in late life.
