Cataract ( Motibindu ) What is Cataract What is Cataract ( Motibindu ) ? A cataract is an opacity (or cloudiness) in the lens of the eye. This restricts light passing through the eye and reaching the retina. When this occurs, vision is affected.

Common Symptoms of Cataracts  Clouded, blurred or dim vision.  Increasing difficulty with vision at night.  Sensitivity to light and glare.  Seeing "halos" around lights.  Frequent changes in eyeglass or contact lens prescription.  Fading or yellowing of colors.  Double vision in a single eye.

Causes of Cataract  The most common cause of cataracts is Aging.  Inherited or developmental problems  Health problems such as diabetes  Medications such as steroids  Trauma to the eye

Cataract ( Motibindu ) Surgery Modern cataract or lens replacement surgery is one of most successful surgeries known. It is effective in restoring vision to most patients.cataract The surgeon makes a tiny incision on the side of the cornea, removes the eye’s clouded natural lens after dissolving it (using a procedure known as Phacoemulsification) and then replaces it with an artificial ‘Intraocular Lens’ (IOL). Modern cataract surgery is a safe outpatient procedure that barely takes about 10 minutes.cataract surgery

Benefits Of Cataract SurgeryCataract Surgery  Improved sight and color vision  Improved clarity of vision  Increased independence  Improved quality of life  Reduced dependence on corrective eyewear

FAQ About Cataract Surgery 1. How Is Cataract Detected? A cataract may be detected by your optometrist or family doctor. It is important that a thorough eye examination is performed by your optometrist or eye specialist to ensure that there are no other causes for your blurry vision.cataract 2. How Fast Does A Cataract Develop? How fast a cataract develops varies among individuals and may even vary between eyes. In younger people and people with diabetes cataracts may progress rapidly over a few months. However, most age-related cataracts progress gradually over a period of years. 3. When Should A Person With A Cataract Have Surgery? Cataract surgery is usually considered when loss of vision begins to interfere with daily activities or affect your quality of life. Based on the specific symptoms, a patient and his/her surgeon should decide together when surgery is appropriate.Cataract surgery

4. How Is A Cataract Treated? During the early stages of a cataract, a change in glasses may improve the clarity of vision, though this is usually temporary. When cataracts begin to interfere with daily activities, surgical removal is the only effective treatment. 5. Is Cataract Surgery Permanent?Cataract Surgery Yes. It is not possible to get another cataract once it has been removed. However, approximately 10% of patients may become aware of a gradual blurring of vision some months or even years after the surgery due to thickening of the lens capsule that supports your artificial lens.

6. Will I Need Glasses After The Surgery? Most patients will require glasses for fine visual tasks although some patients can get by without them for certain activities.The design of IOL decides your need for spectacles after the surgery. Newer advanced IOL (Toric, Multifical and Accomodative) can treat cataract and get rid of spectacle power too. 7. What If I Have Other Eye Diseases– Will Cataract Surgery Help? There are many diseases which can affect and limit the eye’s visual improvement following cataract surgery. These can be diagnosed before the operation and your eye specialist will discuss the impact of any such problems with you.

8. Does The Operation Hurt? No. An anaesthetic is applied before surgery so that there is no pain, but some people experience slight discomfort after the surgery. The anaesthetic stops the eye from moving during the operation and your eyelids are held open by a spring, so all you have to do is lie still for the surgery. You cannot see what is happening during the operation. 9. Can Problems Occur After Surgery? Cataract surgery is very safe and has a high success rate. However it is important to understand that complications can occur during or after the surgery. If you experience even the slightest problem after surgery, please contact your surgeon immediately.Cataract
