Cataracts are a common eye condition that can make your vision cloudy or blurry. It happens when the lens in your eye, which is normally transparent, becomes more cloudy. This can make it challenging to see things clearly, especially when there's bright light or at night. Cataracts are very common and can affect your quality of life, but cataract surgery can restore your vision and allow you to experience the world with clarity and sharpness once again.
Only an eye doctor can diagnose whether you have a cataract or another type of vision problem. If you have any of the symptoms below, you should have your eyes checked by a specialist.
Common signs of a cataract include the following:
Lisa K. Feulner, M.D., Ph.D., is a board-certified, comprehensive ophthalmologist specializing in the evaluation and management of cataracts, glaucoma and ocular surface disease. She is the Chief Medical Officer and founder of Advanced Eye Care & Aesthetics and an active member of the Harford County community. In 2016, she was named Premier Surgeon 300, a list of premium refracting cataract surgeons identified by Ocular Surgery News as a leading innovator in the field of refractive cataract surgery.
During cataract surgery, your cataract surgeon will remove your natural lens and replace it with an artificial lens, known as an intraocular lens or IOL, to allow you to see clearly once again. There are many IOL options to choose from based on your budget, vision goals and lifestyle.
Have your cataracts made you lose focus on activities you love? Ask our eye care surgeon if the AcrySof® IQ ReSTOR® multifocal lens, with its groundbreaking ACTIVEFOCUS™ optical design, may be a good fit for you and your active lifestyle. ACTIVEFOCUS™ channels light to the part of your eye that processes distance vision. Additionally, it’s designed to provide balanced intermediate and distance vision to help you see clearly at a wide range with less need for glasses.
This lens offers seamless brilliance for patients with presbyopia and astigmatism. Designed to give you vivid, seamless vision, the TECNIS Symfony Toric Extended Depth of Focus IOL addresses both presbyopia and astigmatism while delivering a full range of continuous vision. The TECNIS Symfony IOL is the first lens of its kind to combine two unique technologies for outstanding visual performance. It elongates the focus of the eye to provide continuous, high- quality vision. It corrects chromatic aberration (color distortion) to provide sharp vision in all lighting conditions. With the TECNIS Symfony IOL you may be able to comfortably enjoy low-light activities such as taking a walk at dusk, going to the movies or even driving at night.
