What are Cataracts?
How are Cataracts Diagnosed?
How are Cataracts Corrected?
Cataracts are an age-related process where the natural lens grows cloudy. Symptoms include glare and halos, that can make it difficult to drive at
night.
An annual exam to evaluate for this common curable condition is recommended.
Once cataracts impact the vision, a simple surgical procedure to solve the problem is recommended. The out-patient surgery consists of removing the cloudy natural lens and replacing it with a new one. Recovery is fast and the results are life-changing.
