Are you becoming more sensitive to light and challenged by glare? Experiencing changes in your vision?
You may be developing cataracts. You’re not alone. The National Eye Institute estimates 50 million Americans will be living with cataracts by 2050.
Following are frequently asked questions about cataracts, and of course, the answers.
We know the eyes are the window to the soul, but did you know they are also the window to your health, specifically your cardiovascular health? New research published in the American Journal of Medicine recently found a distinct correlation between the health of your eyes and the health of your heart.
Specifically, researchers found that approximately half of the nearly 2.2 billion cases of vision impairment worldwide could be improved, or even prevented, by taking simple steps to improve your overall cardiovascular health.
In addition, doctors have learned that a regular annual eye exam is the most reliable, non-invasive way to identify a number of serious—often fatal—cardiovascular conditions such as high blood pressure, high cholesterol, and diabetes.
Astigmatism affects one out of every three people.
While it’s far from life-threatening, astigmatism does not go away. However, there are treatment options available to correct the condition, one of them being surgery. But is surgery is your only option? Let’s explore this.
11 million people suffer from age-related macular degeneration (AMD), an eye condition that can cause blurry vision or lead to a total loss of central vision. According to the American Macular Degeneration Foundation, AMD is the leading cause of vision loss in adults over 55 years old.
Cataracts is another common eye condition that, like AMD, affects the lens of the eye. The lens becomes cloudy and can cause your vision to become blurry, or colors can appear more muted or dull. Cataracts can also cause impaired night vision and sensitivity to light. This is another age-related eye issue and while it is possible to restore your vision through cataract surgery, there are things you can do to slow down or prevent their development.
