7 Signs You Might Have Cataracts with Primary Eyecare & Optical of Meridian

Concerned about your eye health? It's a good idea to see an optometry specialist for an eye care checkup if you're experiencing any of the signs of cataracts listed here. Our eye care office, Primary Eyecare & Optical of Meridian, is here to help you take care of all your vision needs. 

Seeing "Halos" Around Lights

One of the primary signs of cataracts is seeing a bright ring around lights.

Increasing Difficulty Seeing At Night

Many people with cataracts notice that their vision seems to worsen at night, especially while driving.

Cloudy Vision

The formation of cataracts can cause vision to be cloudy or blurry.

Double Vision in a Single Eye

Double vision in just one eye is a sign that a cataract is probably forming.

Yellowing of Colors

Cataracts can take on a yellow tint, making you see the world through a yellow lens. This change can be gradual and hard to notice. If your favorite white clothes begin to take on a yellow tint, there's a good chance that cataracts- not your washing machine- are to blame.

Sensitivity to Light

When cataracts form, it can cause increased sensitivity to bright lights. This can especially be noticeable if you watch fireworks without following the cardinal rule of fireworks safety- wearing eye protection.

Frequent Changes in Eyeglass or Contact Lens Prescription

If you're noticing that you need regular trips to the eye doctor because your vision seems to be worsening rapidly, ask to get checked for cataracts. A quickly worsening prescription can be a sign of something more serious than deteriorating eyesight.
