Cataract Surgery in Bangalore

Cataract is the largest cause of blindness in India. According to a report by the National Programme for Prevention of Blindness (NPB), there are an estimated 15 million people with cataract in India, which accounts for 50% of all blindness. In Bangalore, the prevalence of cataract is estimated to be around 3%.

Most people with cataract are over the age of 50, but the condition can occur at any age. Cataract is caused by a build-up of protein in the lens of the eye, which leads to cloudy or opaque vision. In severe cases, cataract can cause complete blindness.

Cataract surgery is the only effective treatment for cataract. The surgery involves removing the cloudy lens and replacing it with an artificial lens. Cataract surgery is a safe and effective procedure, and most people who have the surgery experience significant improvements in their vision.
