Pre-and Post-op Cataract Care With Trusted Doctors in Dallas
Cataracts can make everyday activities like reading, driving, and recognizing faces more difficult. Over time, they cause blurry vision, increased glare sensitivity, and trouble seeing in low-light conditions. We provide comprehensive cataract co-management, offering pre-surgery evaluations and post-surgery care to ensure a smooth treatment process. If cataracts are affecting your daily life, Dr. Hampton will guide you through every step, from initial diagnosis to recovery after surgery.
What Are Cataracts & When Is Surgery Necessary?
Cataracts develop when the eye’s natural lens becomes cloudy, leading to gradual vision loss. While cataracts can take years to progress, they eventually interfere with daily activities, depth perception, and night vision.
Many patients manage early cataract symptoms with updated glasses prescriptions and increased lighting, but surgery may be necessary to restore clear vision as the condition progresses. The good news is that cataract surgery is a safe, effective procedure, and Dr. Hampton ensures patients receive the best care before and after surgery through our co-management services.
What Is Cataract Co-Management?
Cataract co-management is a team-based approach to cataract care, where Dr. Hampton works closely with trusted ophthalmologists to ensure a seamless transition from diagnosis to post-surgical recovery.
Pre-Surgery Evaluations
Before surgery, Dr. Hampton conducts thorough cataract screenings, including:
- Retinal imaging and visual acuity testing to determine the severity of cataracts.
- Referrals to experienced cataract surgeons when surgery is the best option.
After surgery, follow-up care is essential to ensure proper healing and long-term visual success. Dr. Hampton provides:
- Post-operative monitoring to check for healing progress and vision stabilization.
- Prescription adjustments for glasses or contacts, if needed.
- Ongoing support to address any concerns or complications after surgery.
With comprehensive pre-and post-surgical care, patients experience a smooth transition from cataract diagnosis to clear, restored vision.
Signs You May Need Cataract Surgery
Cataracts progress at different rates, but if you are experiencing any of the following symptoms, it may be time to consider surgery:
- Blurry, hazy, or cloudy vision that does not improve with prescription glasses.
- Difficulty driving at night because of glare from headlights.
- Colors appear faded or yellowed, making it harder to distinguish between shades.
- Increased light sensitivity, especially in bright sunlight or indoor lighting.
- Frequent changes in prescription with little to no improvement in vision.
If cataracts are making daily tasks more challenging, a cataract evaluation can determine the best next steps for your eye health.
