What is a
cataract?

Inside every eye is a clear natural lens
that focuses light. Over time its proteins
clump together and the lens loses
transparency – light scatters instead of
passing through, so vision turns hazy.

IT’S NOT A FILM OVER
THE EYE. IT’S A CHANGE
INSIDE THE LENS ITSELF.

Treatment cost: $3,000–$5,000+

Symptoms

Blurry city street

Everything looks hazy, as if seen through fog or frosted glass.

Colors lose their vividness and whites turn yellowish.

Night driving with glare from headlights

At night, headlights and lamps glare with rings of light around them.

Why it happens

Elderly man in thought

Aging

Over the years, proteins in the lens clump together and cloud it.

Blood sugar test

Diabetes

High blood sugar speeds up the clouding of the lens.

Eye injury

A blow or injury to the eye can trigger a cataract even years later.

5.0/5

I’d been living with everything looking foggy for almost two years before I finally came to Fovea. Dr. Carter walked me through every step and never once made me feel rushed. The surgery itself took maybe fifeen minutes, and the next morning I could read the clock across the room again. I cried a little, honestly. Thank you.

4.0/5

Best decision I’ve made for my health in years. The colors came back. That’s the thing nobody tells you – you don’t realize how yellow and dull everything got until it’s fixed.

4.9/5

Life-changing. Simple as that.

5.0/5

Came in for the laser correction after wearing glasses for 30 years. The procedure went smoothly and the staff were friendly and reassuring. Took me a little while to adjust afterward, but I’d recommend them to anyone considering it.

Services

What else we treat

We treat a full range of eye conditions, from laser correction to glaucoma and beyond.

Laser vision correction

Free yourself from glasses and lenses.

A laser reshapes the cornea to correct nearsightedness, farsightedness, or astigmatism. The procedure takes about 15 minutes for both eyes, and most people are back to their routine the very next day.

Duration: ~15 min for both eyes From $450

Glaucoma

Control the pressure, protect your sight.

Glaucoma quietly raises pressure inside the eye and damages the optic nerve before you notice anything. Catching it early lets us tailor treatment – drops, laser, or surgery – before real vision loss sets in.

Duration: screening ~40 min From $30

Astigmatism

Clear up blurred, distorted edges.

An unevenly shaped cornea causes this blur, and it’s corrected with glasses, lenses, laser, or – if you’re also treating cataracts – a special lens fitted during that surgery.

Duration: depends on method From $25

Vision diagnostics

A full check-up for your eyes.

One visit covers acuity, eye pressure, retina, and cornea on modern equipment, catching issues long before they’d affect your sight.

Duration: ~30–40 min From $20

Dry eye syndrome

Relieve the discomfort and grittiness.

Screens, contact lenses, and age are the usual causes. We find yours specifically and match a treatment that actually brings the comfort back.

Duration: consultation ~30 min From $18

Myths & Facts
about cataract

Myth vs Truth

Fear often comes from myths. Here’s the truth behind the most common ones.

Cataracts can be cleared up with special eye drops or vitamins.

No drops or vitamins can clear the lens - only replacing it works.

You have to wait until a cataract is "ripe" before treating it.

That advice is outdated - it can be treated as soon as it bothers you.

A cataract is a film that grows over the eye and gets peeled off.

It isn’t a film - it’s the eye’s own lens clouding from the inside.

Cataract surgery is a dangerous and painful operation to go through.

It’s one of the safest procedures, done painlessly under local anesthesia.

Cataracts only ever happen to people who are already quite old.

Age is the main cause, but injury and diabetes can bring them earlier.
