Cataract Surgery: Your Gateway to Brighter Days
Did you know that around 30% of people aged 65 or older experience visually impairing cataracts in one or both eyes? At ReFocus Eye Health in Avon, our team specializes in comprehensive, personalized care, aiming to restore your vision and quality of life.
A Closer Look at What Cataracts Are
Cataracts are a common age-related eye condition that causes clouding of the eye’s natural lens, which is usually clear. This clouding affects vision by making it blurry or dim, similar to looking through a foggy or frosted window. Cataracts develop slowly over time and can occur in one or both eyes.
Cataracts can significantly impact daily activities, making tasks like reading, driving, and recognizing faces difficult. Fortunately, cataracts can be surgically removed, and the cloudy lens is replaced with a clear artificial lens, restoring clear vision.
Factors Increasing Your Risk
Cataracts are primarily an age-related condition, but they can also be caused or accelerated by factors like:
- Family history of cataracts
- Diabetes
- Smoking
- Prolonged exposure to UV rays
- Certain medications like steroids
- Eye injuries or surgeries
- Obesity
- Alcohol consumption
