Cataract Surgery: New Technology for Reduced Dependence on Glasses
Gainesville, FL (PRWEB) July 29, 2014 -- Many people complain about their dependence on eyeglasses. For many, the very first thing they do each morning is put on glasses to see their clock or make their way to the bathroom. These same individuals also may be dissatisfied with their vision even when using their glasses because of cataracts.
Cataracts may cause difficulty driving, especially at night due to glare. They can make it harder to follow or find one’s golf ball, see the TV, sew or cross stitch, or read fine print. In general, cataracts lead to blurred vision and patients may not be able to enjoy the same vision they once had.
There have been exciting new developments in lens implants used in cataract surgery recently. Lens implants are now able to correct for nearsightedness, farsightedness, astigmatism, and even the need for reading glasses or bifocals. Most people are able to walk away from the surgery with clear vision and a reduced dependence on glasses. Many of the patients at Eye Surgicenter say they have never seen so well.
Today, most cataract operations are over in 15 minutes or less. No injections or stitches are required. No patches are used, so the patient leaves with immediate vision. Surgical centers, like Eye Surgicenter, are available so that the patient can have the surgery with less waiting and less time spent away from the things that they enjoy. Recovery is fast with most people returning to most normal activities almost immediately.
Patients should not let reduced vision prevent them from enjoying the things that they like to do. All too often, patients tolerate their decreased vision without knowing that something can be done. It’s never too early to operate on cataracts if the cataract is interfering with the patient’s lifestyle and preventing them from doing the things that they like to do. In addition, operating on cataracts earlier is actually preferred for certain types of eye diseases that coexist with the cataract.
Eye Surgicenter invites patients to call their staff to address concerns and urges patients to not put off the opportunity to achieve improved vision and reduced dependence on glasses any longer.
