Cataract Surgery at UK Eye Clinics
A Clear Vision for Living
One in four people will develop cataracts over the age of 75. Cataracts are seen as a normal problem of aging however there are some ways to delay cataracts developing:
- It is recommended to wear sunglasses or a hat with a brim to block ultraviolet sunlight to protect eyesight
- Smoking damages the eye - patients should stop smoking to prevent vision damage and complications after cataract removal
- Research suggests that good nutrition can help reduce the chance of developing cataracts. Green leafy vegetables, fruits, and other foods rich in antioxidants are strongly recommended.
For anyone who is aged 50 or older, a yearly eye examination is recommended to allow early diagnosis of a cataract.
