Cataract Surgery

Blurry vision due to cataracts is common in adults over the age of 50, and new advances in cataract surgery make it easier than ever to treat this problem. At our Columbus, Ohio area centers, we have helped many cataract sufferers restore their vision through advanced cataract surgery procedures.

Although it is a common problem, many people do not know what cataracts are or that they are suffering from them. Below, we have provided information about cataracts and cataract surgery so that you can better understand this common vision problem. To determine if cataracts have affected your vision and if cataract surgery is needed, the experienced eye professionals at Bloomberg Eye Center in Columbus, Ohio, will perform a thorough eye examination.
Cataracts refer to a condition in which the normally clear lens of the eye becomes cloudy, causing glare, and affecting a person’s ability to see clearly. Cataracts rarely affect younger people, while people 60 and older are at the greatest risk of developing cataracts. Other factors, such as certain diseases and injuries, as well as heredity, can also increase your risk of developing cataracts.

If you believe your blurry vision is due to cataracts and would like to find out if cataract surgery can help, contact our Newark and Columbus, Ohio practice to schedule a free evaluation and consultation.
