Signs That You May Need Cataract Surgery
Several things could indicate that you may be a candidate for cataract surgery.
You Have Problems Driving at Night
With cataracts, driving at night can be incredibly dangerous. This is due to the fact that cataracts can cause halos to form around lights, which can severely impact your vision.
Objects You See Have a Brown or Yellow Tint
Having cataracts can sometimes seem like you are looking through a dirty window. Colors may appear faded or muddy instead of bright and vibrant. In some cases, white objects may even appear brown or yellow.
You Suddenly Experience Double Vision
Seeing double can be incredibly frustrating. It can be nearly impossible to complete any task if you are seeing two of everything. Although this can happen in both eyes, most patients experience double vision in one eye. If you experience double vision, it is essential to reach out to Keamy Eye & Laser Centre right away.
Your Vision Prescription Keeps Changing
It is normal to experience vision changes as you age. However, if you notice your prescriptions are changing more often, it could be a sign that a cataract is developing in one or both eyes. Unfortunately, one leading problem with cataracts is that they will eventually progress to the point where eyeglasses or contact lenses will no longer work. Instead, you will need to have cataract surgery to be able to see again.
You Have Blurry Vision
Having blurry vision can make it challenging to get around. It can also increase the chances of you falling and getting hurt. If your vision seems much blurrier than before, it may be time to make an appointment to check for signs of cataracts or other serious eye problems.
