Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Presbyopia is a natural age-related change in which the eye's ability to focus on close objects is decreased, resulting in difficulty seeing close-up objects clearly. This can be a sensory alteration that may affect older adults in a long-term care facility. Constipation, anorexia, and dry skin are not directly related to sensory alterations.
