What is Cataract?

A cataract happens when the natural lens of your eye becomes cloudy, making your vision appear blurry or dull. It usually develops slowly and can affect one or both eyes. While aging is the main cause, factors like eye injuries, diabetes, or certain medications can also lead to cataracts.

At An Noor Eye Hospital, our consultants provide advanced cataract treatment in Chennai using modern techniques that help patients regain clear and comfortable vision.

Symptoms

Diagnosis

• Comprehensive Eye Exam: Your vision at various distances is evaluated during the visual acuity exam.
• Slit-Lamp Examination: Uses a microscope with a bright light to examine the structure of the eye, including the lens and the retina.
• Retinal Exam: Dilates the pupils to allow a detailed view of the retina and the optic nerve.
• Tonometry: Measures intraocular pressure to rule out glaucoma, which can sometimes occur alongside cataracts.
• Anterion (Top high-end German technology from Heidelberg): Accurate results to get the most predictable & perfect visual outcome.
• OCT, Dry Eye Assessment: Specular Microscope, A-Scan, B-Scan, RAM.
• OPTOS: Used to take retinal images covering a 200° field of view WITHOUT DILATION (less waiting time, no blurriness).
