The retinas become thinner than usual in aging eyes, the sharpness that should be achieved in viewing objects at a distance is impaired, objects placed at a distance appear blurred. The irises get stiffened, hence, the pupils become less responsive and more sensitive to glare. Eye problems like cataracts and glaucoma are common as you age. Aging also leads to hearing loss. The eardrums thicken, making hearing more difficult than usual. Moreover, exposure to loud noise after 60 years of age can lead to permanent damage of ear cells, or wax building in the eardrums can lead to various infections and diseases.
