Cataract Surgery Co-Management in The Woodlands 

Cataracts are a common age-related condition that causes clouding of the eye’s natural lens, leading to blurry vision, glare sensitivity, and difficulty seeing at night. While early-stage cataracts may have little impact on daily life, advanced cataracts can significantly affect vision quality and independence. Fortunately, cataract surgery is a safe and highly effective procedure that can restore clear vision. 

We offer comprehensive cataract co-management, ensuring you receive pre-surgical evaluations, care coordination with trusted cataract surgeons, and attentive post-operative care. Our team is here to guide you through every step of the process, providing personalized care before and after surgery.

Cataracts: Signs & Symptoms 

Cataracts develop gradually over time, often because of aging, UV exposure, diabetes, smoking, or genetic factors. Patients with cataracts may experience: 

  • Blurry or hazy vision that worsens. 
  • Increased sensitivity to light and glare, especially while driving at night. 
  • Faded or yellowed colors, making objects appear dull. 
  • Frequent prescription changes without clear improvement. 
  • Double vision in one eye or trouble seeing in low-light conditions. 

If you are experiencing these symptoms, a comprehensive cataract evaluation can determine whether surgery is the right option for you.

Post-Surgical Cataract Care & Follow-Ups 

After surgery, we will provide comprehensive post-operative care to ensure proper healing and visual recovery. During your follow-up visits, we will: 

  • Monitor your healing progress and vision stability. 
  • Check for any signs of complications, such as swelling or discomfort. 
  • Adjust your prescription if needed for the best possible vision. 

Many patients experience significantly improved vision within days of surgery, with full recovery typically occurring within a few weeks.
