Symptoms, conditions and causes
Why do I have poor night vision?
Poor night vision means it’s hard to see during the night or when it is dark. Let’s look at the root cause behind it.
Symptoms:
Can’t see at night
Disoriented when it’s dark outside
Cause #1: Vitamin A deficiency
One of the functions of vitamin A is to sensitize the cells in the eye to respond to light. Without vitamin A you will not be able to see at night. The active form of vitamin A is called retinol. Retinol is found mainly in animal products. If consuming vitamin A-rich foods doesn’t remedy the situation I suggest improving the absorption of it by assisting the liver with the production of bile (absorbs vitamin A).
