Short-sightedness. Someone with short-sightedness can see near objects clearly, but cannot focus properly on distant objects. This is caused by the eyeball being elongated, so that the distance between the lens and the retina is too great.
Radon Symptoms. What are the symptoms of radon poisoning? Since radon is the #2 cause of lung cancer in the U.S., respiratory ailments are the most likely signs of radon-related distress. A persistent cough, hoarseness, breathing difficulties, and recurring respiratory infections are all possible indications of radon poisoning.
Most of the information gleaned about radon's effects on the human body have come from studies of workers in uranium mines. Unusual levels of lung cancer among workers with otherwise low total radiation exposure led to the discovery that this mildly radioactive gas was more dangerous than had been believed.emoving radon is a bit more complex and can have a greater effect on your home's environment. One popular mitigation method uses a low volume ventilation fan which pumps air from beneath the basement floor or slab (via plastic pipe) to a vent located at the roof line.
