Cataracts in adults

Cataracts in adults are a common eye condition where the lens of the eye becomes cloudy, leading to vision problems. Symptoms often include blurred or cloudy vision, difficulty seeing at night, sensitivity to light, and seeing halos around lights. Some people may also experience changes in colour perception or frequent changes in their glasses prescription. Surgery is the primary treatment for cataracts and is typically recommended when the cataracts significantly affect daily activities. During the procedure, the cloudy lens is removed and usually replaced with an artificial lens, which can restore clear vision. The surgery is generally safe and effective, allowing many people to regain their sight and improve their quality of life.
