How can blurry vision be corrected?

I've been experiencing blurry vision. What could be the cause, and how can it be corrected?

Is your blurriness up close, in the distance, in middle ranges, is it of recent onset, did you lose any vision are all questions that you need answered. Are you an eyeglass or contact lens wearer and is it time to have your prescription checked? If you are over 40, it can be quite normal for your close vision to get blurry, called presbyopia. The causes of blurry vision can be many including the normal changes in the eyes creating more nearsightedness, farsightedness, presbyopia, or astigmatism. Depending upon your age, anormal aging process called cataract development can cause your vision to change and to become blurry. Uncorrected dry eyes can cause blurry vision as well as any internal eye infections, uveitis, or retinal conditions including macular degeneration. My best suggestion would be for you to have your blurriness properly evaluated by an eye doctor so that you know exactly what the problem is and what your options are to treat your condition. Good luck and best wishes.
