A person with cataracts may experience blurry vision, and even around dim lights may have difficulty seeing. Some people may start to lose their eyesight, depending on how far along the condition has gotten. There are many reasons that a cataract can develop, but the most common being age.
Cataracts in one or both eyes occur when the lens of the 
eye becomes cloudy, causing you to experience vision problems. The good news is that with the right treatment, this can be corrected. So, what are your cataract treatment options, and how affordable are those options?
Cataract treatment options
The thing about cataracts is that you can have them in your forties and fifties, but never experienced any problems until your late 60s. Considering earlier you’re diagnosis the better your treatment options. For instance, cataracts caught in the early stages can be treated easily.
Magnifying lenses, eyeglasses, or better lighting can be the treatment for cataracts caught in the early stages. If these options do not help at all with correcting vision problems, you can be almost sure you’re in the later stages of cataracts. In this case, surgery is the only other option.
Surgery to treat cataracts
When cataracts start to affect your vision more, they can start to affect things that you do on a daily basis such as driving or reading. When this happens, cataracts basically need to be removed. Cataract surgery is not only safe, but at least 90% of people who need surgery have a successful one.
There are many types of cataracts such as Traumatic, Radiation, Secondary, and Congenital Cataracts. The type of cataracts you have will also determine whether surgery is right for you. The best way to determine if you have cataracts is to have a regular eye exam every year. In some cases, cataracts do not affect a person’s vision, but it is best to take care of it before it does.
