CATARACT VISION

Surgery for Cataracts

A cataract is the clouding of the lens inside the eye. This is a very common condition as we age and can lead to symptoms of blurred vision, glare, halos around lights and decreased brightness and color vision. Many people experience the feeling of looking through dirty glasses or a dirty windshield when cataracts become troublesome. Reading, watching television, using a computer and driving, especially night driving, can all become difficult due to a cataract interfering with your vision. When a cataract is causing vision difficulties that limit your daily activities and enjoyment of life, it may be time to consider cataract surgery.
