Life span continued – 70: iris is inelastic and doesn’t let in as much light – Glaucoma: build up of pressure ? – Aqueous humor: shuts blood vessels ? – Cataract: lens or capsule becomes opaque ? – Laser surgery and implant – Macular degeneration: macula cones degenerate – Detached retina: pulls away from choroid coat ?
