Cataracts are a common cause of poor eyesight as we age. Removing cataracts has an obvious benefit: restoring clear vision. But did you know cataract surgery has other benefits not related to the eyes?
These are the lesser known benefits of cataract surgery:
There are many aspects of life that we can't control. After Cataract Surgery, patients may be able to ditch or diminish their reliance on glasses for reading, computer work, watching television and driving. Many patients find that they can resume favorite hobbies.
Falls are a leading cause of death and injury among older adults. About 1 in 3 falls occur in older people who wear bifocal or multifocal glasses. These types of spectacles reduce contrast sensitivity and depth perception. People are less likely to need multifocal lenses after cataract surgery. Indeed, several studies suggest that cataract removal can reduce the risk of falls.
The link between vision loss and dementia has been a focus of recent studies. A new report makes a compelling case that cataract removal reduces the risk of developing dementia.
