Waterfall: What you need to know about its modern treatment<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

\u039f waterfall<\/b> is the normal clouding of the crystalline lens of the eye, which usually occurs with age. This lens is located behind the pupil and is responsible for focusing light on the retina. When it loses its transparency, vision gradually becomes blurred, making daily activities increasingly difficult.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Symptoms and Indications<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

The symptoms of cataracts develop slowly and include:<\/p>

  • Gradual blurring of vision:<\/b> Objects look less clean, like looking through a dirty window.<\/p><\/li>

  • Alteration of colour vision:<\/b> The colours may look duller or yellowish.<\/p><\/li>

  • Annoying reflections (Glare):<\/b> Light sources (such as car headlights at night) become a nuisance.<\/p><\/li>

  • Diplomacy:<\/b> If the central core of the lens becomes cloudy, double vision may be seen in the affected eye.<\/p><\/li><\/ul>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

    The treatment of cataracts is exclusively surgical. The purpose of the operation is to remove the cloudy lens and replace it with an artificial intraocular lens.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

    The Intervention Procedure<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
    \n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

    1. Tissue Protection:<\/b> The eye is filled with a special viscoelastic substance that protects sensitive tissues, especially the cornea.<\/p><\/li>

    2. Burning:<\/b> The surgeon removes the front part of the periocular sac (the bag that surrounds the lens).<\/p><\/li>

    3. Phacotrypsy:<\/b> Using ultrasound, the opaque lens is crushed and removed by suction, leaving the posterior part of the periorbital lens intact.<\/p><\/li>

    4. Endophakic implantation:<\/b> An intraocular lens, the power of which has been accurately calculated by examination of the biometrics<\/b>. The lens is stabilized inside the eye with special \u201cfeet\u201d.<\/p><\/li><\/ol>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

      To ensure proper healing, attention is required to the following:<\/p>

      • Avoiding rubbing:<\/b> Nothing should touch or press your eye. A blow can open the incision.<\/p><\/li>

      • Protection:<\/b> Wear protective goggles and avoid sports. Beware of contact with young children.<\/p><\/li>

      • Hygiene:<\/b> Avoid getting shampoo or soap in the eye and do not use swimming pools.<\/p><\/li>

      • Prevention of infections:<\/b> Avoid dusty areas and contact with people who have a cold.<\/p><\/li><\/ul>

        Attention:<\/b> If you notice sudden vision loss, severe pain or persistent redness, contact your eye surgeon immediately.<\/p><\/blockquote>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

        In about 20-25% of patients, the posterior part of the periphysis (the sac that holds the intraocular lens) may become cloudy months or years after surgery. This is called secondary cataract<\/b> and its symptoms are similar to those of the initial cataract (blurring, decreased vision).<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
