WHAT IS A CATARACT?

A cataract is clouding of the natural lens. Cataracts are a normal part of aging. About half of Americans ages 65 to 74 have cataracts. Over 90 percent of those age 75 and over have this condition.

Symptoms indicating you may have cataracts are:

• Cloudy, fuzzy, foggy, or filmy vision.

• Changes in the way you see colors.

• Problems driving at night because headlights seem too bright.

• Problems with glare from lamps or the sun.

• Frequent changes in your eyeglass prescription.

• Better near vision for a while only in farsighted people.
