What Causes Black Objects To Appear Green?

I am 71 yr old female. At times when I look at something black it look green, example, written words on page of a book, a picture frame, my remote control, etc. It does not do it all the time, but has been occuring more in the past 2 months. My last eye exams at a opthomoligist was Jan. 2018 and all was fine. YYYY@YYYY

In your case, there are a few things to consider. AMD(Age-related macular degeneration) is a possibility. Secondly, cataract also causes such symptoms. Kindly get your eyes checked up for these two.
