CATARACT SURGERY: AM I A CANDIDATE?
Also known as surfer’s eye, pterygium is a non-cancerous growth of tissue that forms on the white of the eye, and can extend to the cornea. Advanced Laser and Cataract Center Oklahoma offers treatment for patients with pterygium, including eye drops to alleviate symptoms, or even surgical solutions for more severe cases.
The best way to learn whether you are a candidate for cataract surgery is to meet with a member of the Advanced Laser and Cataract Center Oklahoma Team for an evaluation. As surgery is the only cure for cataracts, candidates include anyone who has been diagnosed with the condition. If you are experiencing any of the following symptoms, schedule a consultation in Oklahoma City to determine if you need cataract treatment:
- Blurred vision that cannot be corrected with prescription contact lenses or eyeglasses
- Halos or glares
- White spots on the pupil
- Impaired vision at night
- Colors appear less vivid
