Seeing eye to eye with cataract surgery
Cataracts are a condition that affects the eyes, where the lens, which sits behind the cornea and allows our eyes to focus, gradually gets cloudier as the proteins in the lens break down. The cataract can cause vision to become indistinct and blurry, shortsightedness, and difficulties with colour perception. In this article, experienced consultant ophthalmologist Mr Sumith Perera opens our eyes to the wonders of cataract surgery.
