| What Are the Stages of Cataracts? |
There can be many types of diseases in the eyes. One of these diseases is cataract. In this, there is a condition in the eye in which the lens of the eye starts to change and due to this the ability to see starts decreasing. Generally, as people get older, the chances of getting cataracts increase. Cataract disease develops slowly. Apart from this, if a person has a disease like diabetes (diabetes) or high blood pressure (hypertension), then they can also get cataract disease.
Some Common Symptoms of Cataract Can Be
Frequent change in number of glasses
Make things blurry
Flashing of light before eyes
Trouble seeing at night
Diffusion of light before eyes
Stages of Cataracts
There are following stages of cataract disease, which patients can suffer from:-
Imature: This is the early stage of cataract. During this, a small part of the lens of the eye gets a white layer on it, due to which there is some difficulty in seeing. Most people do not pay much attention to this symptom. The truth is that people do not realize that they are getting this problem due to cataract.
Maturity: When early signs are ignored, glaucoma progresses to a stage where a cloud-like object builds up in front of the eye permanently. This thing is opaque and due to this the eyesight of the patients starts decreasing. It becomes difficult to see them. In this stage everyday routine starts getting affected.
Hypermature: This is a very serious condition of the disease in which water starts flowing from the eyes. Eyes get swollen. Leakage causes the lens of the eye to become smaller and wrinkled. In such a situation, there is also a complaint of pain in the eye due to inflammation. Complications have to be faced during surgery in this condition. According to the doctor, if the disease of cataract is not treated on time, it becomes serious.
Do not allow cataract to reach a severe stage: The real thing is that if there is a disease of cataract, then it should not be avoided because it can lead to a very serious condition. Currently, there are many such techniques with the help of which cataract can be treated at an early stage and it can be easily removed from the front of the eye lens.
When a patient is not able to get timely treatment of cataract disease, then it reaches a very serious condition. In such a situation, it is very difficult for the surgeon to remove the white layer lying before the lens of the eye and also has to face complications.
In fact, when cataracts are treated in the early stages, ultrasound and laser are rarely used to remove the front layer of the eye lens in pieces. The diseased layer is soft at this time, so it is easy to remove. When the disease reaches a very serious stage, the lining in front of the eyes becomes hard. Hence complications have to be faced during the surgery.
Therefore, to avoid such a situation, cataract surgery should not be postponed, but as soon as the patient realizes that he is having trouble seeing, he should get his eyes examined immediately. After eye examination, if he is found to have cataract, then cataract treatment should be done without delay. In fact, when the disease is in its early stages, it is easier to treat and recovery is easier after surgery.
Types of Cataract surgery
Cataract surgery is Done in The Following Ways:-
Cataract surgery is done in many ways. The method or technique used to treat the patient depends on the patient's eye health, availability of technology and expertise of the surgeon.
Phaco Emulsification:
Cataract treatment has been done by this procedure for many years. In this method the disease is treated through a small incision. There is no need to put any kind of bolt in it. It is a safe procedure and the patient recovers quickly.
Micro-incision Cataract Surgery (MICS):
In this technique, cataract is treated by making a small incision. The size of the incision can be around 1.8 mm to 2.2 mm. The front layer of the lens of the eye is removed through this incision. It also does not require talk or injection. In fact, it is an advanced procedure that improves vision and the recovery time is at least 4-7 days.
Advanced Blade Free Robotic-Assisted Cataract Surgery:
Cataract is treated by laser technology and is known to be the most advanced technology for cataract treatment. Its special features are that it allows the surgeon to perform the surgery as per the requirement of the patient through 3D mapping. It does not require any blades and/or injections and is considered a very safe procedure. It has a very short recovery time as compared to other surgical procedures.
Cataract surgery is a very simple and painless surgery.
Most people dread the name of surgery. If you are also suffering from cataract and are holding back from getting treatment for the disease in the name of surgery, then you should not do this. With this you can lose your eyesight forever.
If you are afraid of the surgical procedure, then the thing to understand is that cataract removal is a very simple procedure. It is the most common surgery performed in India and the result is usually safe. Currently, due to the development of technologies, the process of replacing the lens of the eye is much less time-consuming and complications are less.
