What is a Cataract?

A cataract is the clouding of the eye’s natural lens, causing vision to become blurred or hazy. Cataracts usually develop gradually with age but can also occur due to diabetes, eye injuries, long-term steroid use, certain medical conditions, or previous eye surgery.

Without timely treatment, cataracts may progressively affect daily activities such as driving, reading, working on digital devices, and recognising faces.

Fortunately, cataracts can be treated successfully through modern cataract surgery, one of the safest and most commonly performed surgical procedures worldwide.

Common Symptoms of Cataracts

You may need a cataract evaluation if you experience:

• Blurred or cloudy vision
• Difficulty seeing at night
• Increased sensitivity to bright lights
• Glare or halos around headlights
• Frequent changes in spectacle prescription
• Double vision in one eye
• Colours appearing faded or yellowish
• Difficulty reading or watching television

If you notice any of these symptoms, consult our specialists for a comprehensive eye examination.

Cataract Surgery in Kolkata

Cataract surgery is the only effective treatment once a cataract begins affecting vision.

During the procedure, the cloudy natural lens is removed and replaced with a clear artificial intraocular lens (IOL). Modern cataract surgery is typically a day-care procedure, allowing most patients to return home on the same day.

The surgery usually takes around 15 to 30 minutes, is performed under local anaesthesia, and generally does not require stitches.

Most patients notice improved vision within a few days, with complete recovery occurring over the following weeks as advised by the treating ophthalmologist.

Your ophthalmologist will advise the right time for surgery based on your symptoms and examination findings.

Cataract Surgery Recovery

Recovery after modern cataract surgery is generally quick.

Most patients can resume normal daily activities within a few days while following their doctor’s advice.

To support healing, patients are usually advised to:

• Use prescribed eye drops regularly
• Avoid rubbing the eye
• Wear protective glasses when outdoors
• Avoid swimming until permitted
• Attend scheduled follow-up appointments

Following post-operative instructions carefully helps ensure the best visual outcome.

Why Early Diagnosis Matters

Many people delay cataract treatment because they believe vision loss is a normal part of ageing.

Early diagnosis allows your ophthalmologist to monitor cataract progression and recommend treatment before vision significantly affects your daily life.

Regular comprehensive eye examinations become increasingly important after the age of 40, particularly for individuals with diabetes or a family history of eye disease.
