What is a Cataract?
A cataract is a clouding of the natural lens in the eye, typically caused by aging or other factors such as injury, genetics, or medical conditions. As the cataract progresses, it can lead to blurred vision, glare, halos around lights, and difficulty seeing at night. Cataracts can significantly impact daily activities such as reading, driving, and watching television.
Cataract surgery is a safe and effective procedure performed to remove the cloudy lens and replace it with a clear artificial lens, known as an intraocular lens (IOL). After cataract surgery, many patients experience improved vision, enhanced clarity, and reduced dependence on glasses or contact lenses. Patients can look forward to a clearer vision for activities such as reading, driving, and watching television, reduced glare and halos around lights, especially at night, and improved overall quality of life and independence.
