glaucoma involves damage to the optic nerve typically from increased eye pressure, and
conjunctivitis is an inflammation of the conjunctiva. Cataracts are one of the most common age-
related vision problems in the elderly population.

preferences and is antithetical to culturally competent care. True cultural diversity embraces
individual differences rather than imposing a one-size-fits-all approach.
