Cataract

This is an eye disorder that tends to reduce your eye sight overtime. Human eye lens in normal conditions sees objects clear. But if you notice a blur or a hazy vision, you might well have developed cataract. If your haziness worsens further then there needs to be an urgent treatment. This may include surgical intervention. Such treatment is simple but mandatory. Delay of ignorance of treatment can cost you your all precious "vision".

Causes: Cataract starts out small and at first have little effect on your vision but as age progresses, so does it. There are many possible reasons for getting cataract even at young age as well. Old people have higher chances of cataract but remember anyone can get it anytime. Patients can even have it in both eyes. Right information about the causes is the best remedy. Actually, we don't know for sure why the eye's lens has vision loss with age. But medical research has identified several factors that may cause cataracts. Besides old age, cataract may be caused by:

  • Exposure to Ultraviolet radiation
  • Excessive use of corticosteroid medications
  • High Blood Sugar (diabetes)
  • Hypertension (very High Blood pressure)
  • Eye injury or previous eye surgery
  • By birth or family history
  • Addictions like Smoking. Alcohol or substance abuse
  • Obesity or cholesterol reduction medicine

Diagnosis: Eyecarehelpline.com has a large team of ophthalmologists & professional support staff. They will examine and test your eyes to make a cataract diagnosis. We cover all important tests for cataract detection. For an in time diagnosis, get an eye examination every year if you're older than 65, or every two years if younger. Your complete eye exam will begin with dilation. The simple procedure of dilation requires widening your eyes using eye drops.
