Questions to Ask Your Cataract Surgeon

Cataracts are a normal part of aging, but they don’t have to mean vision loss. Surgery to correct cataracts can improve your vision even beyond what it was before you started to develop them, and it can correct presbyopia (that reading-glasses vision that overtakes us in mid-life). Here are some questions you could ask your surgeon before undergoing cataract surgery.

• How many cataract surgeries have your performed?
• How long have you been performing cataract surgery?
• What is your rate of success in restoring vision with cataract surgery?
• Will I still need glasses after cataract surgery?
• What level of vision can I expect to achieve?
• What types of intraocular lenses do you offer?
• Will I be able to see and drive at night after cataract surgery?
• Will my cataracts come back?
• Will I need follow up surgery?
• Does cataract surgery involve stitches?
• What should I expect during recovery?
• How long until I can return to my normal activities?
• How long will it take for my vision to improve?
• Can I wait to have cataract surgery until later in life?
• Will I need to stop wearing my contacts before the procedure?
• How much will my cataract surgery cost?
• Does the cost include follow up visits and enhancement procedures?
• Are there any extra fees?
• Do you offer some financing plans?
