It is not caused from overuse of the eyes, and using the eye does not make the cataract worse. Cataracts are not related to cancer, and having a cataract does not mean you will be permanently blind. If you have cataracts you may not realize it right away. Your vision loss may be gradual, painless and hard to detect until significant loss has occurred. Your vision may become blurry or hazy, and you may have difficulty reading fine print or threading needles.
Some people report the feeling of a film covering their eye.
Others experience vision problems at night. There is no complete medical or nutritional method of clearing up the cataract. A complete examination at Gailey Eye Clinic will indicate whether a cataract is your problem and if a simple change in your glasses will suffice to permit you to do the things important to you. You have probably experienced a few symptoms of having a cataract. The rate at which a cataract progresses varies with the individual.
