Unfortunately, cataracts don’t go away by themselves and they tend to get worse with age. The good news is, they are highly and easily treatable with cataract surgery.

Cataract surgery is regarded as a routine and virtually painless procedure that involves replacing the cloudy lens of the eye with a clear artificial lens (also known as an intraocular lens). It’s one of the safest and most commonly performed surgeries in the U.S.

The procedure itself takes about 15 minutes and can be performed right here in our outpatient facility. The entire process only takes about 2 hours.

What are the symptoms of cataracts?

If you’re older and experiencing any of the following issues, cataracts could very well be the culprit.

• Cloudy or blurry vision
• Difficulty seeing at night, especially while driving
• Sensitivity to light
• Halos around lights
• Faded or yellowed colors
• Double vision
• Frequent changes to eyeglass or contact prescription

What are the benefits of cataract surgery?

The biggest benefit is being able to see life the way it was meant to be seen, rather than viewing it through the dingy, cloudy lens that cataracts create. Other benefits include:

• Sharper, clearer, more vibrant vision
• Improved confidence driving at night
• Reduced glare and halos, from headlights, lamps, and sunlight
• Decreased dependency on contacts, eyeglasses
• Improved quality of life
• More enjoyment of daily activities including reading, watching television, cooking, etc.
• Increased independence, decreased risk of injury (falls, fractures)
