If this issue worsens, you may lose your vision. It is not treatable with glasses or medicines. To achieve decent outcomes, a surgical procedure is required.

How to apply Cataract Surgery?

The patient is required to undergo a detailed eye examination. After this examination is completed, doctor determines the treatment which will be used and informs the patient. 

The pupil is enlarged with drops before the operation. The lens which has lost its transparency is replaced with an artificial lens by opening micro incisions in the surgery. With the help of this new lens, patient can regain his/her vision back. This is a classical method which has been used for many years.
