Answer to Question 1

Answer: These are age, genetics and family history, poor cardiovascular health, and head injury.

Answer to Question 2

Answer: Both presbyopia and AMD are vision disorders that manifest with age. Presbyopia is the age-related decline in the ability to focus on objects up close, especially in low light. AMD is an age-related vision disorder caused by deterioration of the macula that reduces central vision.
