CATARACT SURGERY

A cataract is a cloudy or opaque area in the normally transparent lens of the eye. As the opacity thickens, it prevents light rays from passing through the lens and focusing on the retina.

Cataract is clouding of normal clear crystalline lens of the eye. It leads to decrease or loss of functional vision. It can be compared to a window that is frosted. The amount and pattern of cloudiness can vary within the lens. Cataract formation is not associated with "signals" such as pain, redness or tearing.
​The common symptoms are:

• Blurring or dimness of vision
• Feeling of a film over the eyes
• Sensitivity to light and glare
