Dear Reader,

Cataracts are a very common eye condition, particularly as we get older. Cataracts are more than just an annoyance causing murky vision and making it hard to differentiate colors. Untreated cataracts can limit vision to the point of blindness.

The only definitive cure for cataracts is surgery. The procedure has a remarkable record of safety and success. But how do you decide if and when it’s right for you? Can you slow cataracts’ progression? What are the real risks?

A new online guide from Harvard Medical School answers all those important questions and more.

You’ll find honest, authoritative, and welcome guidance that will take you from diagnosis to decision…

• What causes cataracts? The most common cause is age. As you get older the chemical composition of your eye’s lens changes causing vision to become cloudy. The effects? Vision becomes blurry, colors fade, and sensitivity to glare increases.

• Why surgery—and when? Surgery to replace the lens is the only way to get rid of a cataract. You’ll discover lifestyle changes to delay surgery… factors that may say the time is now…whether to do both eyes at same time or separately…and four important benefits of surgery beyond clearer vision.

• Which surgery? Which type of lens? Which surgeon? The surgical procedure is usually less than half an hour, but you need to take time for key choices first. Should you opt for the new laser-assisted surgical option? Which type of intraocular lens (IOL) is best for you? And what’s the one defining characteristic of surgeons with the lowest complication rate?

• What about recovery? What about risks? You’ll learn how quickly your eye should heal. You’ll read about the common complications, the new option that spares you post-surgery eye drops…and more.

This report will assure you that you see your options as clearly as possible before making your decisions about treating cataracts.
