Abstract
ABSTRACT
Changes occur in our body through out life. Decreased visual acuity is probably the
most common effect of age-related anatomical and neurological changes in the
eyes and the visual pathway. However, this case is an exception as at the age of 75
years, his power of accommodation has returned to normal. The improvement in
accommodation and visual acuity is hard to explain. Likely explanations given need
to be further investigated.
