June is National Cataract Awareness Month!

Did you know that the most common cause of vision loss in the United States is cataracts? A cataract is when the natural lens inside your eye changes to the point where light cannot pass through cleanly and clearly resulting in reduced vision. A cataract can occur in anyone, but typically seen in adults with the earliest symptoms commonly starting in our 40s. Often, these symptoms will be very disruptive to our daily lives and the activities we enjoy. It is at this time when patients begin to seek for solutions to improve their vision.

As our name indicates, The Columbus Laser and Cataract Center, we are specialists in cataract surgery in Columbus, Ohio. We know the eye is a very complex and delicate organ and have therefore focused our talents on delivering the highest quality of cataract care to help achieve optimal results. With a team of surgeons and staff with over 150 years of combined eyecare experience we take pride in our work and always strive to provide patients an exceptional experience.

During the month of June, we will be posting information about cataracts, symptoms, surgery, implants and more. If you have any questions please contact us and we would be happy to talk with you further or to set up an exam with one of our surgeons.
