Cataracts are a common age-related eye condition where the natural lens of the eye becomes cloudy, leading to blurry or hazy vision. This clouding develops gradually and can significantly impact daily activities such as reading, driving—especially at night—and recognising faces.

• Blurred or cloudy vision
• Sensitivity to light and glare
• Difficulty seeing at night
• Faded or yellowed colours
• Frequent changes in glasses prescriptions

Cataracts typically develop in adults over the age of 60, but can also occur earlier due to diabetes, eye injuries, genetic factors, smoking, or prolonged UV exposure.

If left untreated, cataracts can lead to progressive vision loss. Fortunately, they can be effectively treated with cataract surgery, which removes the cloudy lens and replaces it with a clear, artificial intraocular lens (IOL).

Assessment, visual measurements, IOL options.

Pre-op evaluation and patient guidance.

Outpatient procedure using phacoemulsification under local anaesthetic (general anaesthetic is less commonly used but available upon request).

One-day follow-up and vision checks; daily life resumes quickly.
