What this care can involve

Cataracts commonly develop over time and may affect clarity, glare, colour, or night driving.

A consultation confirms whether a cataract is causing the change and whether surgery is appropriate for you.

What to expect at an evaluation

  1. 1Confirm how the cataract affects daily life
  2. 2Measure the eye and discuss lens choices
  3. 3Plan surgery and follow-up when appropriate

Common questions

Does every cataract need surgery?

No. Your ophthalmologist will consider examination findings, safety, and how much the cataract affects activities that matter to you.
