Naperville / Chicago Cataract Surgeon – Dr. Sloane
Dr. Herman Sloane is a highly skilled Naperville / Chicago cataract surgery specialist. He has treated many Chicago area cataracts patients. In the paragraphs below he describes cataract disease and provides background information on the many new lens implant technologies available to restore vision for patients afflicted with cataracts.
A cataract is defined as a clouding of the lens of the eye, resulting in blurry vision. A cataract forms when protein in the lens begins to clump together and cloud a small area of the eye. Over time, this cloud will continue to grow and interfere with vision. Cataract treatment involves surgery to remove the natural, clouded lens of the eye and replace it with a clear, artificial one. There are several variations in both the removal and the replacement portions of the surgery. The technique used depends on both the cataract surgery patient and the ophthalmologist. If you suspect you have a cataract, contact a Chicago / Naperville cataract surgery specialist at Sloane Vision Center for a free consultation.

Here's a look at how it works :
After a certain age (usually mid-40s) patients who previously only required glasses or contact lenses for distance, begin to experience difficulty with near vision. This is part of the normal aging process. As we age, our crystalline lens loses the ability to change focus from near, intermediate, and distance. This is called Presbyopia.

During your free consultation, you will have the opportunity to discuss the cost of your procedure and go over a variety of financing and payment options to find the solution that works best for your budget. Next, imagine an eye that was slightly elliptical in shape - like a football. It only takes a slight irregularity in the shape of one's eye to cause astigmatism. So, for most people, their eye is almost like that round In the earlier days of laser.
