At New Century Ophthalmology, we have provided residents of Raleigh, NC, with eye care services for many years. This includes the diagnosis and treatment of cataracts. Read on to learn about seven signs of cataracts.
Colors Fading
If you are seeing colors as more faded than you remember, this can be a sign of cataracts. If you are noticing faded colors, schedule an appointment with our eye doctor.
Doubled Vision
Double vision, especially when it's in only one eye, is a common sign that you may have cataracts. If you have this symptom, it's best to see our ophthalmologist to have it checked out.
Dimmer Vision
When everything seems to be dimmer than it used to be, this can mean cataracts. If you find that everything is darker and seems to be lit badly, you need to see the eye doctor.
Needing More Light
Do you need more light than you did before? This is common with cataracts. Cataracts can make it harder to see everything without bright light.
Problems With Night Vision
Cataracts can make it much harder to see at night. If you notice this when you're out at night, you need to be examined for cataracts.
Halos Appear
One of the most noticeable signs of cataracts is halos around light sources. They will start small and grow over time.
Light Sensitivity
Having cataracts can make you more sensitive to light. You may see a lot of glare because of this light sensitivity.
