About Cataract
A cataract is a gradual clouding of the eye’s natural lens, leading to blurred or reduced vision. It is a common age-related condition but can also occur earlier in patients with diabetes, eye injury, or prolonged medication use.
Symptoms:
- Blurred or dim vision
- Glare and light sensitivity
- Difficulty driving at night
- Frequent changes in glasses
Why screening is important
Cataracts develop slowly, and patients often adapt without realising how much vision has been lost. Regular eye examinations allow us to:
- Detect cataracts early
- Monitor progression
- Advise on the optimal timing for surgery
Management & services we offer
- Comprehensive cataract assessment
- Vision optimisation and monitoring
- Detailed surgical planning and referral
- Guidance on intraocular lens options tailored to your lifestyle
