Cataracts can affect your vision and make tasks like reading and driving challenging. Along with that, if they are left untreated, they can get progressively worse and lead to blindness. At Eye Group in Madison, MS, we provide eye exams to learn more about your cataracts and offer treatment to preserve your vision. Before you visit us, learn more about the symptoms of cataracts below!
During the early stages of cataracts, you may experience a variety of symptoms. Some of these symptoms include:
If you already have poor vision, this early symptom of cataracts may be hard to detect. However, our ophthalmologists can examine your eyes and provide prompt treatment.
If you notice an increase in eye strain in bright conditions or have difficulty with oncoming headlights while driving at night, these signs may indicate that you have cataracts.
If colors are appearing more faded, dull, or are harder distinguish, we recommend visiting us so we can check for cataracts.
Cataract symptoms often make it harder to focus and can lead to double vision.
As cataracts progress, you may exhibit more severe symptoms that can affect your quality of life. Some symptoms that may occur in the later stages of cataracts include:
If you are noticing vision loss or that your vision correction is not as effective, it may be due to cataracts.
Healthy eyes adjust to darkness within seconds, while eyes with cataracts may never adjust and can make it nearly impossible to navigate in low-light conditions.
If objects are appearing hazy or milky, visit our ophthalmologists so we can check your eyes and confirm if you have cataracts.
Those with developing cataracts may see halos when looking at lights, especially while driving at night.
Treatment is available for cataracts. In most cases, cataract surgery can help improve your vision. Not only that, but surgery is safe and is highly successful.
