What a great experience! Very reassuring and I am very grateful for the consultation from Dr Musa he was so helpful in helping me make a decision to proceed to having eye correction surgery. I have the upmost confidence in him and the team at the Eye Doctor Clinic, Huddersfield.
Lozza 747I had implants with Dr Musa ten years ago. It was the best thing I've ever done. They are brilliant. My sight both near and distant was very poor but since the op I've had no glasses no lenses and my sight has been super. It remains really good to this day. Thank you Dr Musa. Brilliant consultations and treatment for glaucoma since.
Kay FitbitI can highly recommend the Eye Doctor Clinic, and I am so pleased I went there. Dr Musa, Gemma and Jess are lovely. They are very knowledgeable and were able to answer all my questions. My vision following surgery is great, and not having to wear glasses is fantastic.
Carol PeelWhat Is a Cataract?
Cataracts are a slow process in which the eye's normally transparent lens becomes cloudy.
This causes light to scatter as it passes through the eyes, resulting in blurred or cloudy vision. They mostly affect individuals over the age of fifty years. The importance of treating a cataract lies in the fact that it gradually hinders one's daily activities such as reading, driving or having a good meal. Through surgery, it can be treated effectively once in a lifetime.
Cataract Explained
Coming SoonWhy Is Cataracts a Concern?
When cataracts begin to develop, they slowly compromise your independence. You may notice your prescription constantly changing, yet no pair of glasses seems to help. Common symptoms include:
Gradual cloudiness or blurring of your vision.
Glare or halos from headlight beams while driving at night.
Colours appearing dull, yellow, or pale.
Frustration in using more than one pair of glasses.
How Does Cataract Develop?
Cataracts are a very natural part of the ageing process. The clear lens inside your eye is made of water and proteins. As you get older, these proteins slowly begin to break down and clump together.
This process results in areas of clouding over the lens. Since the lens focuses light on the retina, this clouding interferes with proper focus, causing blurred vision.
Although ageing is the biggest contributing factor, genetics, eye injury, and diseases such as diabetes can increase one's risk of developing cataracts.
Types of Cataracts
Nuclear Sclerotic Cataracts
These form deep in the central zone (nucleus) of the lens. They are the most common type associated with ageing and often cause distance vision to become blurred while temporarily improving reading vision.
Cortical Cataracts
These begin as white, wedge-like opacities on the outer edges of the lens cortex. As they slowly grow towards the centre, they frequently cause issues with severe glare.
Posterior Subcapsular Cataracts
These form right at the back of the lens, directly in the path of light. They tend to develop faster than other types, significantly impact your reading vision, and cause halos around lights.
Cataracts at a Glance
Condition Type
Progressive clouding of the eye's natural lens
Who It Affects
Primarily older adults, though early onset can occur
Common Symptoms
Blurry vision, night glare, faded colours, difficulty reading
Risk Factors
Natural ageing, diabetes, eye trauma, long-term steroid use
Typical Age Group
50 to 100+ years old
Potential Complications
Gradual loss of vision, loss of driving licence, reduced mobility
Complications of Untreated Cataracts
If you choose to delay treatment, cataracts will continue to thicken and worsen over time. Potential complications include:
Increased Risk of Falls
Reduced visual clarity alters your depth perception and contrast sensitivity, significantly increasing your risk of trips, falls, and injuries around the home.
Inability to Enjoy Hobbies
Whether it is losing sight of the golf ball mid-swing or struggling to read a recipe, untreated cataracts slowly prevent you from enjoying the activities you love.
Loss of Driving Independence
As glare from oncoming headlights becomes blinding and distance vision blurs, you will eventually fail to meet the legal driving standard, severely impacting your independence.
Total Vision Loss
While highly treatable, a cataract that is completely ignored will eventually become hyper-mature, leading to severe visual impairment and effective blindness in the affected eye.
