Cataracts and Lens Implants

 

 Is Your Vision Suffering from Cataract?

Gradual changes in vision can often go unnoticed if you do not have regular eye exams. If you are age 60 or older, your vision may be suffering from cataracts. However, you may be compensating for these vision changes or simply think that you have to live with inferior vision as you grow older.

At Oculus Eye Clinic we perform cataract surgery to help patients restore their clear vision. Cataract surgery is considered a safe and effective procedure when performed by an experienced doctor.

Many patients experience a quality of vision that is even better than before they developed cataracts due to the many advances in cataract surgery techniques and Intra-Ocular Lens (IOL) options.

An eye exam will detect the presence and severity of cataracts. It is quite common to have cataracts but still be able to live your life without them affecting your day-to-day life. As they grow in size and opacity, they can make it more difficult to drive, read, work, participate in sports and do hobbies. It will be up to you to decide when you want to improve your vision – and your quality of life – through cataract surgery.

While some people may choose to never have surgery, this can lead to blindness. Untreated cataracts are the main cause of blindness worldwide.


If you have noticed that your vision is not as crisp as it used to be, contact us today to schedule an eye exam. If cataracts are to blame, we can monitor the progression and recommend treatment options if necessary.

What Are Cataract?

Cataracts are a normal occurrence in an aging eye. Your transparent eye lens begins to cloud over with the gradual build-up of naturally-occurring proteins in the eye. Instead of allowing light to enter properly, the cloudy lens creates a “foggy” appearance to everything you see.

This process does not happen overnight. It is typically a slow development that makes it increasingly difficult to see things clearly and perform daily tasks.


Symptoms of Cataract

While cataracts are typically associated with aging, they can also occur due to disease, injury, birth defect, or certain medications. Symptoms can include:

Hazy/blurry/cloudy vision

Glare and starbursts with night driving

The dull appearance of colors

Vision takes on a yellowish/brownish tint

Eye sensitivity to bright light


Cataract Evaluation

A cataract evaluation at Oculus Eye Clinic involves several pain-free tests to determine your eye health. These cataract tests are very important to identify the presence, severity and location of any cataracts that may be affecting your vision.
