All about cataracts - Symptoms & Signs, Causes, Types and Treatment

Cataracts are very common and form naturally as we age. They usually progress gradually, leading to issues like blurred or cloudy vision.

What Is Cataract? (मोतियाबिंद क्या है?)

Cataract (मोतियाबिंद) is a natural clouding of the eye’s lens that reduces vision clarity. It causes blurred sight, glare, and difficulty seeing at night.

At our advanced eye-care centre, we use world-class technology to treat cataracts safely and painlessly.

YOU MUST KNOW

Cataracts cannot be prevented, but they can be removed permanently with surgery.

Causes of Cataract (मोतियाबिंद के कारण)

The most common cause is aging, but several factors can increase the risk:

  • Age above 50
  • Diabetes
  • Long-term sunlight (UV) exposure
  • Smoking or alcohol use
  • Eye injury or previous surgery
  • Family history of cataract
  • Use of steroids

Understanding the cause helps us customise your treatment plan and offer long-term eye protection strategies.

Treatment Options (मोतियाबिंद का इलाज)

In the early stages, cataract can be managed with:

  • Updated glasses
  • Anti-glare lenses
  • Stronger lighting for reading

However, these are temporary solutions. Once the cataract progresses and begins affecting daily activities, surgery is the only effective treatment.
Our centre in Dehradun provides personalised evaluation using advanced diagnostics to determine the right time for treatment.

Cataract Surgery (मोतियाबिंद का ऑपरेशन)

Cataract surgery is one of the safest and most successful medical procedures in the world. Modern cataract surgery is quick, painless, and allows a fast recovery.

How It Works

The cloudy lens is removed using high-precision technology (such as phacoemulsification or laser-assisted techniques).

A clear, artificial lens (IOL) is implanted permanently.

Types of Advanced IOLs

We offer a wide range of premium lenses:

  • Monofocal IOLs – clear distance vision
  • Toric IOLs – correct astigmatism
  • Multifocal / Trifocal IOLs – clear vision for distance, computer, and reading
  • EDOF lenses – wider range of vision with minimal glare

Tomey OA-2000 Optical Biometer

The Tomey OA-2000 is a fast, non-contact, all-in-one optical biometer that combines axial length, keratometry, pachymetry, anterior chamber depth, and corneal topography in one quick scan.

This makes pre-cataract surgery examinations smoother, reduces patient stress, and provides highly accurate data for better Intraocular Lens (IOL) calculations.
