An older resident in a long-term care facility reports to the nurse that she has been noticing changes in her vision, including the appearance of halos around objects and a yellow tint to most objects. The nurse knows that these complaints are most often associated with:

A. Cataracts commonly cause symptoms such as blurred vision, halos around lights, and a yellow or faded tint to colors. These changes occur due to the clouding of the lens in the eye. B. Age-related macular degeneration typically affects central vision and causes straight lines to appear wavy or a blind spot in the central visual field, but not halos or yellow tinting. C. Glaucoma may cause halos around lights in some cases, especially with acute angle-closure glaucoma, but it is more commonly associated with peripheral vision loss, not color changes. D. Diabetic retinopathy causes vision changes due to damage to retinal blood vessels, but halos and yellow tinting are not primary symptoms.
