What Are Cataracts?

Cataracts are a common eye condition that occurs when the natural lens of the eye becomes cloudy, leading to blurry vision, glare sensitivity, and trouble seeing in low light. Cataracts become quite common after age 40 or so. Some signs of cataracts include difficulty with reading, faded colors, and halos around lights. If left untreated, cataracts can significantly impact your daily life. At BVA Advanced Eye Care, our experienced cataract surgeons are here to provide treatment, helping you regain clearer vision and improve your overall quality of life.

How Are Cataracts Treated?

Cataracts are treated through cataract-removal surgery, where the cloudy natural lens of the eye is replaced with a clear artificial lens. This procedure is quick, highly effective, and typically performed on an outpatient basis. During the surgery, your cataract surgeon will help you choose from various cataract lens options, including standard lenses or premium lenses that can correct vision problems like astigmatism or presbyopia. By selecting the right lens, patients can often reduce or eliminate the need for glasses after surgery.

What Are Cataract Symptoms?

Cataracts develop gradually and can cause noticeable changes in your vision over time. Some common signs of cataracts include:

  • Blurry or cloudy vision
  • Sensitivity to light or glare
  • Difficulty seeing at night
  • Fading or yellowing of colors
  • Seeing halos around lights
  • Frequent changes in your eyeglass or contact lens prescription
