abstract="The aim of the paper is a comparison of sight defects observed in two age groups of drivers who caused severe road accidents. The study material comprised 326 drivers from the district of Lublin who were divided into two groups. The first group consisted of drivers of 50 and under 50 years of age while the second one comprised drivers over 50 years of age. In the first group sight defects were found in 28% of examined subjects and the second in 83.9%. The category of driving licence was changed because of detected sight defects in 7% of drivers from the first group and in 41% of drivers from the second group. The authors point to the necessity of periodical examinations of older drivers and to the need for informing drivers about symptoms of aging of the sight organ.<p /><p>Language: pl</p>",
