6 main symptoms of cataract!
Cataracts are more common in older people, and symptoms usually develop over time. In fact, most people don’t realize they have cataracts in the first place because symptoms develop so slowly.
Some symptoms of cataracts include:
- Double vision in one eye
- Blurred, blurred, or dimming vision (increasing over time)
- Sensitivity to lights, such as the sun or headlights in other cars
- color dullness
- A “halo” appearance around lights (especially at night)
- Regular changes in eye sight levels, causing a change in eyeglass prescription
Symptoms of cataracts vary from person to person, although most patients report that they feel as if they are constantly looking through a foggy or dirty window. This experience will get worse as the eye condition develops over time.
News of the week:
Cataracts are not painful and do not cause any problems with the eye except for the symptoms listed above. Also, redness of the eyes is not normally associated with this eye disease.
