A cataract is a clouding of the lens of the eye. Cataracts are more common after the age of 60, but can occur at any age. The cloudy vision can make it difficult to see road signs clearly and cause significant glare symptoms from bright lights.

Most cataracts develop very slowly and initially do not affect the vision. As the cataract grows denser the vision will decrease as a result. The cataract can be removed with a simple, 10-15 minute procedure in which the cataract is taken out and replaced with a lens implant. Depending on the implant used, cataract surgery can reduce or even eliminate the need for glasses!
