Cataract Treatment

A cataract is the clouding of the eye’s natural lens, leading to blurred or dim vision. It is one of the most common causes of vision loss, especially in older adults. Over time, cataracts can interfere with daily activities like reading, driving, or recognizing faces.

Symptoms of Cataract:

  • Blurry or cloudy vision

  • Sensitivity to light or glare

  • Fading or yellowing of colors

  • Difficulty seeing at night

  • Frequent changes in eyeglass or contact lens prescription

Causes of Cataract:

  • Natural aging process (most common)

  • Eye injuries or trauma

  • Diabetes or other medical conditions

  • Prolonged exposure to sunlight (UV rays)

  • Use of certain medications like steroids

  • Smoking or excessive alcohol consumption

The only effective treatment for cataracts is surgical removal of the cloudy lens and replacement with an artificial intraocular lens (IOL).
