Cataract Management
What are cataracts?
A cataract is a clouding of the eye’s lens that usually develops with age, but can also be caused by injury. This lens allows light to pass through the eye, which is then transmitted to the brain. When we’re born, our eyes’ lenses are perfectly clear, but as we get older, they can become foggy, obstructing our ability to see properly. Some symptoms of cataracts include blurred vision, objects looking hazy at all distances, difficulty with activities like reading or driving at night, and seeing halos around lights.
Early Detection and Management of Cataracts
Early detection of cataracts through regular eye exams is critical when it comes to safeguarding your vision. If we find any, we can help you adapt to the changes in your sight by fitting you in the right eyewear. This eyewear can help correct your vision and make you more comfortable, but the only way to truly restore your eyesight is by removing the clouded portion of your eye and replacing it with an intraocular lens (IOL) via cataract surgery. When you’re ready, we can refer you to a surgeon who we trust to do it safely and successfully.
