If you experience a clouding in your vision, it could be cataracts. This is perfectly normal and, in the majority of cases, easily treated with little or no discomfort. As cataract treatment advances, Eye Consultants of Texas is advancing with it.
Cataracts form when the naturally clear lens inside of the eye begins to opacify or "fog up,"" as protein builds up on the natural lens. This clear lens is responsible for letting light into the eye and refracting it onto the retina. As a cataract forms on the lens, light is no longer able to get into the eye, resulting in blurry vision. When left to progress, a cataract can generally cause blindness. Millions of Americans are affected by cataracts each day. Luckily, cataract surgery is extremely effective, quick and safe. In many cases, patients experience the best vision of their lives shortly after surgery.
Cataracts develop very slowly over a course of years. They may not be noticeable at first. Many people think they just need a new prescription, when in reality their blurry vision is a result of cataract development.
Most of the time, our doctors are able to diagnose cataracts before the patients even see a difference in vision (a good reason to attend eye examinations regularly!). If you experience any of these symptoms, you may be developing cataracts:
