Health condition negatively affecting the eye
This is a partiallist ofhuman eye diseases and disorders.
TheWorld Health Organization (WHO) publishes a classification of known diseases and injuries, theInternational Statistical Classification of Diseases and Related Health Problems, or ICD-10. This list uses that classification.

[edit]H46–H48 Disorders of optic nerve and visual pathways
[edit]H49–H52 Disorders of ocular muscles, binocular movement, accommodation and refraction
[edit]- (H49-H50)Strabismus (Crossed eye/Wandering eye/Walleye) – the eyes do not point in the same direction
- H52Disorders of refraction andaccommodation
- (H52.0)Hypermetropia (Farsightedness) – the inability to focus on near objects (and in extreme cases, any objects)
- (H52.1)Myopia (Nearsightedness) – distant objects appear blurred
- (H52.2)Astigmatism – the cornea or the lens of the eye is not perfectly spherical, resulting in different focal points in different planes
- (H52.3)Anisometropia – the lenses of the two eyes have different focal lengths
- (H52.4)Presbyopia – a condition that occurs with growing age and results in the inability to focus on close objects
- (H52.5) Disorders of accommodation
H53–H54.9 Visual disturbances and blindness
[edit]- (H53.0)Amblyopia (lazy eye) – poor or blurry vision due to either no transmission or poor transmission of the visual image to the brain
