Cataract Surgery
Cataract Surgery
Cataracts are a very common condition, particularly among older adults. However, treatment options for cataracts can be very different depending on an individual’s situation. While mild cataracts might require no more than a new eyeglasses prescription, advanced cataracts often require surgery. At Columbia, our team of specialists can help you decide which options are best for you.
