They say the eyes, the most important of the five internal organs, are the windows to the soul. As I age, I often feel my vision becoming cloudy and dull. Having worn glasses since my teens, I've become a close friend, and I'm acutely aware of the importance of good eyesight.
Glasses are also replaced frequently and checked frequently.
Although I haven't had cataract surgery, many people do. Glaucoma and cataracts are often confused, but glaucoma is a disease that affects the optic nerve and can be treated with medication, while cataracts are a common geriatric disease that causes the lens to become cloudy. Neulbom Eye Clinic also offers pediatric ophthalmology, so it's always busy with patients.
