Cataract is one of the most common eye conditions, especially affecting people above the age of 40–50 years. A cataract occurs when the natural clear lens of the eye becomes cloudy, leading to blurred vision, difficulty seeing at night, glare from lights, faded colors, and reduced visual clarity.
Over time, cataract can seriously affect daily activities such as:
Reading
Driving (especially at night)
Watching television
If left untreated, cataract can gradually progress and may even lead to severe vision loss or blindness. The good news is that cataract is completely treatable with a safe and advanced surgical procedure.
At VAGA Hospital, Lucknow, we focus on early detection and advanced cataract treatment to restore clear vision and improve quality of life.
Cataract does not improve with medicines, eye drops, or spectacles once it progresses. Surgery is the only effective treatment.
