Cataract Services
Cataract services focus on diagnosing and treating cataracts, which cause clouding of the natural eye lens leading to blurred vision. These services typically involve surgical procedures to replace the cloudy lens with an artificial intraocular lens (IOL). With modern phacoemulsification techniques, recovery is faster, and outcomes are highly successful. Early detection and treatment restore clear vision and enhance quality of life.

- Sensitivity to light and glare
- Fading or yellowing of colors
- Frequent changes in prescription glasses
Diagnostic Methods
- Visual acuity test
- Slit-lamp examination
- Retinal exam
- Tonometry
- Contrast sensitivity testing
Common Conditions Treated
- Age-related cataracts
- Congenital cataracts (present at birth)
- Traumatic cataracts (due to injury)
- Secondary cataracts (caused by other diseases like diabetes)
- Radiation cataracts
- Posterior subcapsular cataracts
Treatment Options
- Non-surgical management in early stages (glasses or magnifying lenses)
