Example of a Lens with Cataracts

What is a Cataract?

Your eyes’ lenses are comprised of mostly water and protein and that protein can bind together as we age. This clump of protein forms a cloudy area in the lens making it difficult to see. By age 60, nearly half the population will have at least one eye affected by a cataract. Cataracts develop slowly over time and are painless. If left untreated, a cataract can lead to blindness in the affected eye.

Symptoms of Cataracts

  • Blurred, Foggy or Cloudy Vision
  • Blues and Greens Appear Faded
  • Difficulty Reading Small Print
  • Double Vision
  • Seeing Halos Around Bright Lights

What causes cataracts to form is largely unknown, but there are certain risk factors that make cataracts more likely. These factors include aging, sunlight exposure, smoking, poor nutrition, specific medications, chronic diseases and past trauma to the eye. Typically, the only treatment for cataracts is to remove the cloudy lens and replace it with an artificial lens, called an intraocular lens. Cataract surgery is the most common outpatient surgery performed in the U.S.
