Initial cataract treatment

Cataract treatment usually involves observation, lifestyle changes, and non-surgical treatments such as eye drops.

In the early stages of cataracts, your doctor may recommend regular observation of the condition as symptoms may not be obvious. In addition, lifestyle changes such as reducing UV exposure, quitting smoking, controlling blood sugar and blood pressure may also help slow the progression of cataracts. In some cases, your doctor may recommend eye drops to relieve symptoms or improve vision. However, it is important to note that eye drops do not cure cataracts, but only temporarily relieve symptoms.

If you are diagnosed with an early cataract, be sure to consult a professional for accurate and appropriate treatment advice.
