• Vision that appears foggy or cloudy; as if there's a film over the eye.
• Inability to see colors as vividly as before.
• Seeing double.
• Problems seeing well at night.
• Seeing an aura or halo surrounding lights.
• Increased sensitivity to glaring lights.
• Difficulty in differentiating shapes or similar colors.
