Cataracts

Cataracts are a common age-related condition that causes clouding of the natural lens of the eye, leading to blurry vision, glare, and difficulty seeing in low light. While cataracts are a natural part of aging, they can significantly affect your vision and daily activities if left untreated. Fortunately, cataract surgery is a safe and effective procedure that can restore clear vision and improve your quality of life. 

If you are experiencing symptoms of cataracts, such as blurry vision or trouble seeing at night, Dr. Porter will perform a comprehensive eye exam to diagnose the condition. Using advanced diagnostic techniques, he will assess the severity of your cataracts and evaluate your overall eye health.

Once cataracts are diagnosed, Dr. Porter will work closely with you to develop a personalized treatment plan tailored to your needs and preferences. Surgery may not be necessary right away. In the early stages, a new prescription for glasses or contact lenses may restore vision. Once cataracts interfere with your quality of life and ability to perform daily tasks, surgery is required.  

If cataract surgery is recommended, we will provide you with information about the procedure, including what to expect before, during, and after surgery, and refer you to an ophthalmologist in the area for the procedure. Following the surgery, our team at Wind City Eye Care will set up follow-up appointments to monitor your recovery.
