Hardened and significantly clouded lens causing severe vision impairment. These typically require surgery for restoration of sight.
Early stage with mild to moderate blurriness or light sensitivity. Monitoring and discussing options with your doctor is important.
Wedge-shaped opacities in outer lens layers affecting peripheral and night vision. Treatment depends on severity.
Present at birth or developing in early childhood. Require personalized treatment plans to protect vision development.
Cross-section of Human Eye
The natural crystalline lens of our eye is clear which allows light to be focused clearly on the retina. With aging, this lens loses its transparency and gradually becomes clouded thereby impairing vision.
In healthy eyes, the crystalline lens is completely transparent, allowing sharp light focus on the retina for clear vision.
With age, proteins in the lens begin to break down and clump together, forming cloudy areas that scatter light.
The clouding grows larger over time, affecting more of the lens and making it increasingly difficult to see clearly.
Eventually the cataract becomes significant enough to interfere with daily activities — requiring surgical intervention.
Aging is the most common cause of cataract, but several other factors can trigger cataract development at any age.
The most common cause — natural aging causes lens proteins to degrade and clump, gradually clouding vision over decades.
Loss of eye vision post cataract surgery. Medications are prescribed to eradicate the infection and restore clarity.
High-impact injuries to the eye can damage the optic nerve, causing the lens to lose its strength and develop cataracts.
Prolonged radiation exposure can cause optic vision loss. Improper eye protection leads to gradual cataract formation.
Present from birth due to genetic factors inherited from parents. Failing to treat at the earliest may result in permanent blindness, making early intervention critical.
Prolonged use of corticosteroids, diabetes, excessive UV exposure, and smoking are known risk factors that accelerate cataract development significantly.
Recognizing cataract symptoms early allows for timely intervention and better outcomes. Watch for these signs:
Like looking through a foggy window — the world appears dull and unfocused.
Headlights, lamps, and sunlight become surrounded by annoying halos or bright streaks.
Seeing in dimly lit environments becomes increasingly difficult and dangerous.
Fine print, labels, and intricate details become blurry and challenging to discern.
Colors appear less vibrant and washed out, losing their richness and depth.
Needing new or stronger glasses more often than usual could signal progressing cataracts.
Our skilled ophthalmologists utilize advanced diagnostic tools to detect cataracts at their earliest stages.
Tests your eye's visual strength using eye charts with varied font sizes to measure clarity and reading capacity.
A microscope illuminates the eye's internal structures, including the lens, for detailed evaluation of any opacity.
Eye drops widen the pupil, allowing a deeper look at the lens, retina, and optic nerve for complete assessment.
Measures pressure within the eye — an important check since elevated eye pressure can sometimes accompany cataracts.
Cataract eye surgery can be performed at any stage once it starts interfering with the daily activities of the individual. With the advent of techniques and technology, cataract operation can be performed safely and effectively even in early stages.
In fact, more advanced and harder cataracts are associated with an increased incidence of complications — earlier the better.
You need not wait for the cataract to mature. Early surgery ensures better outcomes, faster recovery, and fewer complications.
In the very early stage, corrective glasses may help. Surgery remains the only definitive treatment for visually significant cataracts.
A majority of IOLs implanted are monofocal lenses. These have the capability of focusing light from a single distance. Normally distant objects are clear and reading glasses are required for near work.
For patients with high cylindrical power (astigmatism), Toric IOLs correct the eye power at both the corneal and lenticular plane, eliminating the need for distance glasses post-surgery.
Different segments focus light from various distances onto the retina, providing clear vision at near, intermediate, and far distances. Most patients can manage daily activities without any glasses.
Every package includes pre-op evaluation, the procedure, and post-op follow-up care.
