Your eye lens is transparent and biconvex in structure. Eye lens along with cornea helps refract light and focus on the retina to get a clear picture of the object you see. When protein clumps up, it clouds the lens and reduces the light that reaches the retina causing blurry images. Such eye condition is called as cataract. Cataract surgery is an effective way to get rid of cloudy lens.
Your eye lens is designed in such a way that by changing shapes, the lens functions to change the focal distance of the eye, so that it can focus on objects at various distances. This creates sharp real objects on your retina. So, when you look at any object of interest, these are the steps that occur inside your eyes to give you a clear image of what you are looking at.
Any obstruction to the light passing through your lens gives blurry or double images. Cataract is one of the reason to cause such obstructions.
Types of cataracts include:Cataract surgery gives an efficient solution to your cataract problem. During a cataract surgery, your eye surgeon replaces your damaged eye lens with a new, artificial lens. Type of lens used in this surgery depends on various factors. A multi-focal lens can be used to set multiple focal points that give you clear images of both near and distant objects. Before going for a cataract surgery, you can ask your eye specialist regarding which type of lens is suitable for your eye sight.
