"Having my cataracts removed
was a life changing experience."
"My job is to drive a fire truck and respond to emergencies as quickly and safely as possible. I started to notice my night vision was becoming poor and something was clouding my vision in general. I was afraid my poor vision would begin to affect response time, the safety of my crew and everyone I passed while driving the vehicle. After speaking to my doctor about the problems I was having, he decided I was a candidate for cataract surgery."
"When I had my first cataract removed the difference was amazing. With cataracts, colors were plain and muted. Once they were removed the colors became bright, clear and crisp, it was an absolutely amazing scenario. I can't even explain with words how different it is. I had been wearing glasses since I was three years old and I thought I would continue to wear glasses for the rest of my life because I wasn't a good candidate for LASIK. Now I don't even need glasses. My night vision is tremendous and much brighter and clearer. Now I'm back in the driver's seat."
Cataract Surgery
Cataract surgery is one of the most commonly performed procedures in the United States. In our state-of-the-art surgical center, the physicians at Eye Care Associates can perform this delicate procedure on an out-patient basis. When a patient feels their daily routine has been affected by the changes in their vision, and a diagnosis of a cataract has been made, then surgery can be scheduled. The procedure has become sophisticated enough that your vision without glasses can be significantly improved.
