Cataracts & Cataract Surgery
The lenses in your eyes bend the light that comes into the eye to help you see. The lenses are normally clear. When the lens becomes a cataract, the vision becomes cloudy, making vision appear foggy, hazy, or blurry. At Pennwood Ophthalmic Associates, PC, Dr. Erlichman is an expert in performing cataract surgery to return vision to normal. Make an appointment at our Everett, PA, office to find out more.
Cataract Causes & Symptoms
Cataracts typically develop as a result of aging, leading to the gradual clouding of the lens in the eye. Factors such as diabetes, family history, eye injuries, and certain medications can accelerate cataract formation, impacting your daily activities.
Symptoms of cataracts include: blurry vision, seeing double, seeing colors as faded or yellow, having a sensitivity to light, and difficulty seeing well at night or in low light.
Cataract Surgery
Our experienced surgeon, Dr. Erlichman, utilizes advanced techniques and state-of-the-art technology to perform cataract surgery. During the outpatient procedure, a small incision is made in the cornea to gently remove the cloudy lens, followed by the insertion of a high-quality intraocular lens (IOL). This ensures that light is accurately focused on the retina, allowing for clear vision once again, without the need for sutures.
