Each week, we will look to answer some of your most popular questions. If you have an eye-health or ophthalmology-related question you wish to have answered, please comment below and we’ll hope to have your response within future weeks.

Today, we have an cataracts question for you.

Q: What are some of the first signs of cataracts?

A: In honor of Cataracts Awareness Month, we wanted to share some of the first signs of developing cataracts. They include:

  • Clouded, blurred or dim vision.
  • Increasing difficulty with vision at night.
  • Sensitivity to light and glare.
  • Seeing “halos” around lights.
  • Frequent changes in eyeglass or contact lens prescription.
  • Fading or yellowing of colors.
  • Double vision in a single eye.

If you are experiencing any of these symptoms, please contact your ophthalmologist to make an appointment.

    Thanks for mentioning that clouded vision is a sign of cataracts. My mother has mentioned having clouded vision. Maybe she should visit a professional to see if it’s from cataracts.
