Does tobacco really make someone blind as l have cause to read in a government warning about smoking?
Quite often, l read ads about why one should stop smoking, and quite frankly too, my eyes find it difficult to sometimes read a simply line on a paper, unless l back it up further from my eyes, is this truly as a result of smoking? And if so, what remedy is left for me, as l dont want to use medicated glasses.
LOL. smoking can`t make you blind. i`m sure of that.

I have been on this earth for 6 decades and that's the first time I've heard that! We can't live forever,at least not in our present state,so I smoke ,and I have COPD, but Smoking is my nerve calmer lol and I am smart enough to know that if smoking don't kill me something else will! As for the Government warning,well did they not tell us Tomato's were unsafe and spinish,and milk a few years back,the milk I mean,and eggs! So you should not worry about that,it's simply worthless chatter!

Smoking doesn't make you go blind, but it may affect your vision because of its effect on your blood vessels. It can cause them to shrink, including in your eyes.

You may have no other choice. Smoking (to my knowledge) has no effect on your vision. As we get older, our eyes seem to lose the ability to see things clearly, so they tend to be out of focus, therefore you'll probably need reading glasses and that would depend if you're near-sighted or far-sighted. Check with your eye doctor to see if you are ok. But no smoking is not linked to eyesight. Good luck!

Smoking may clog your arteries and regarding your eyes, there may be not enough oxygen-rich blood to sustain a healthy retsina. This can result in blindness.

I'd say you need glasses. And that has nothing to do with smoking -- your eyes lose their ability to focus as you age.
However, despite what some people here are saying, smoking *can* make you go blind. It increases the risk of macular degeneration substantially. That's one of the reasons I no longer smoke -- there's hereditary MD in my family so I'm at high risk of it.
