all three other than cataract causes hemorrhages or any other change in fundas.,hence irreversible...cataract is sort of conduction disturbance.,produce no change in fundas. n reversible

i think cataract as well.
old age + DM.
glucoma will be progressive loss?
also is glucoma associated with DM? pain will be one of the features besides halos.

glaucoma isnt associated with DM . Pain might not be present but then the loss is gradual. Halos are present in both glaucoma and cataracts
glaucoma is definitely associated with OLD AGE
CATARACT! is the answer
