Cataract Surgery

What Are Cataracts? 

Inside the eye, there is a natural clear lens that bends light rays into the eye to help us see. With normal aging and sometimes trauma, medications such as steroids, systemic diseases such as diabetes, and prolonged exposure to ultraviolet light can make that lens cloudy. If your lens has become cloudy you have a cataract. When you have a cataract things can look blurry, hazy, or less colorful.

Early detection of a cataract can be done through an exam in our office. Reducing your exposure to ultraviolet light by wearing a wide-brimmed hat and sunglasses may reduce your risk of developing a cataract, but once one has developed, there is no cure except to have the cataract surgically removed.

To schedule, a cataract evaluation call our office at 810-238-3603
