No. Cataracts are due to a change in the lens material. However, cataracts can become worse as more of the lens material changes.
Usually the development of cataracts is gradual with a painless worsening of sight. Other symptoms include blurred or hazy vision, spots before the eyes, double vision and a marked increase in sensitivity to glare.
This varies with each patient. Usually cataract surgery is performed when the patient's vision interferes with daily life. Your optometrist will assist you in making this decision.
In most cases very well. Most patients have an intra-ocular lens (IOL) inserted at the time of surgery, with excellent results. This is a plastic lens, which replaces your own cloudy lens. Patients will still need to wear spectacles or contact lenses after surgery.
Cataracts are cloudy areas that form in the lens of the eye. The lens is normally clear. Poor vision results because the cloudiness interferes with light entering the eye. The opacities in the lens scatter the light, causing hazy vision, in the same way that a dirty window scatters light.
If untreated, cataracts can cause blindness. Blindness can be prevented by detecting the cataracts early and, if necessary, by having they removed surgically. Your optometrist will refer you to an eye specialist if they consider that you need medical treatment for your cataracts.
An examination by your optometrist will reveal any changes that have occurred in the lens of the eye. Optometrists have special equipment, which enables them to see changes in the lens, which may lead to cataracts several years before any symptoms appear.
Usually cataracts affect both eyes but often develop at different rates in each eye.
Yes. The clouded areas become larger and denser and cause the patient's sight to become worse. The time taken for this to happen varies from a few months to many years.
People older than 65 years often have signs of cataracts and should have their eyes examined regularly. However, the extent of the cataract varies considerably between individuals of the same age.
