Cataract & Vision Evaluation
At Mirada Verde, we evaluate how changes in the lens may be affecting your vision and help determine the most appropriate next step.
A cataract develops when the natural lens inside the eye becomes cloudy. It can cause blurred or hazy vision, faded colors, glare, halos around lights, and increasing difficulty seeing at night. Cataracts usually develop gradually and become more common with age.
Signs of Cataract:
You may benefit from an evaluation if you notice:
Cloudy, blurry, or hazy vision
Colors appearing faded or less vivid
Increased sensitivity to bright light
Glare or halos around lights
Difficulty driving or seeing at night
Frequent changes in your eyeglass prescription
Double vision in one eye
Greater difficulty reading or performing everyday activities
These symptoms may also be caused by other eye conditions, so a comprehensive examination is important.
Understand your vision and your options. Changes in vision do not always mean that surgery is immediately necessary. A comprehensive evaluation can help clarify the cause of your symptoms and determine the appropriate next step.
Do You Need Cataract Surgery?
Not every cataract requires immediate surgery.
In the early stages, updated glasses, improved lighting, and glare-reducing lenses may help improve daily vision. Surgery may become appropriate when the cataract significantly interferes with activities such as reading, driving, working, or maintaining independence.
Surgery is currently the only treatment that removes a cataract
