To understand the importance of why a timely cataract treatment is important let us understand how this disintegration of lens happen.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Why not leave cataracts untreated?<\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>The lens in our eyes is mainly made of water and proteins. As we age, these proteins start to coagulate or clump together clouding the lens slowly with time. This leads to blurry and impaired vision.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Now, this is the stage when your cataract starts maturing. If you ignore it and do not seek any medical help, the cataract gets \u2018hyper-mature\u2019 over time. Hyper-maturation of cataract means that they become so dense that it becomes difficult to remove them even surgically. Even after surgery of hyper-mature cataracts, the vision may not be satisfactory.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n<div class=\"wp-block-image is-resized\">\r\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-medium\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-7842 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/blog-revamp.s3.ap-south-1.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/13002600\/evla-surgery-300x300-1.jpg\" alt=\"evla surgery\" width=\"300\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog-revamp.s3.ap-south-1.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/13002600\/evla-surgery-300x300-1.jpg 300w, https:\/\/blog-revamp.s3.ap-south-1.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/13002600\/evla-surgery-300x300-1-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/blog-revamp.s3.ap-south-1.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/13002600\/evla-surgery-300x300-1-96x96.jpg 96w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>If you still leave your cataracts untreated even further, it hugely increases the risk of glaucoma or complete loss of vision. Cataract affects the overall quality of life and hence a well-timed treatment is crucial. \u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>If you suffer even from a slightly blurry or foggy vision, halos around light or double vision, contact an eye doctor immediately.
