A cataract is a clouding or opacity of the eye lens which causes gradual blurring of vision and finally may lead to blindness.
Cataracts gradually increase the opacity of the eye’s natural lens and limit the ability to see clearly. A lens is a transparent structure inside your eye, which works like a lens in a camera. Likewise, a foggy camera lens makes everything dim and blur, a cataract makes it hard for you to see clearly.
Cataracts are the most common cause of blindness. Now with the availability of advanced treatment of phaco systems, cataract treatment is a painless and very comfortable day care process. Without any use of injection, suturing and bandage, enables the person to start his/her routine life from the very next day.

Below are a few frequently asked questions regarding Cataract?
By following a healthy lifestyle and have a balanced diet, the probabilities of cataracts getting worse may be reduced. Avoiding drugs which increase the risk of cataracts, can also prevent cataract growth. Also including long-term use of certain eye drops & medicines for skin and other ailments.
