Cataract Evaluations


Cataracts do not generally pose a health threat to your eyes. The option of surgery is based on your personal daily vision needs and how the cataracts are currently impacting your life. If a cataract is found during your comprehensive eye exam, these additional tests may be performed to assess if surgery would be an appropriate form of treatment for the cataract: 
  • A detailed refraction is done to make certain that no improvement can be made with a change in your prescription. 
  • Glare Testing to determine the effects increased and decreased light may have on the quality of your vision. 
  • Potential Acuity Testing to determine if we would expect an improvement in your vision after the cataract was removed.
