As frightening as cataracts might sound, modern cataract surgery usually can restore vision lost to cataracts β and often can reduce your dependence on eyeglasses as well.
Sometime after age 50, most of us are likely to hear our eye doctor say, "You have cataracts."
A cataract is a clouding of the lens inside the eye, causing vision loss that cannot be corrected with glasses, contact lenses or corneal refractive surgery like LASIK.
Second, the lens must fit your eye. To do that, lenses come in tens of thousands of combinations of diameter and curvature. Of course, not every lens brand comes in every "size."
Which Contact Lens Is Right for You?
Your contacts must address the problem that is prompting you to wear lenses in the first place. Your contact lenses must provide good vision by correcting your myopia, hyperopia, astigmatism, or some combination of those vision problems.
Be sure to follow the instructions your OB/GYN doctor gives you regarding proper nutrition, including supplements, and the proper amount of rest you need during your pregnancy.
Your child's vision development begins before birth. How you care for your own body during your pregnancy is extremely important for the development of your baby's body and mind, including the eyes and the vision centers in the brain.
Daily disposable contact lenses are single-use lenses that are removed and discarded at the end of each day, and a fresh pair of lenses is applied to the eyes the next morning.
Starting good eating habits in your teens will help you see your best, maintain a healthy weight as an adult and may decrease your risk of certain serious eye problems later on, including cataracts, macular degeneration and diabetic retinopathy.
Besides giving you the energy you need to thrive in school, sports and other activities, good nutrition plays a vital role in maintaining healthy vision.
In your teen years, a healthy diet is especially important for keeping you alert and strengthening your muscles and bones. Wise food choices also help keep your skin smooth and clear for a more confident you.

These vision problems are caused by presbyopia, which affects all of us beginning in middle age and reduces our ability to see at all distances.
Many vision correction options are available, such as presbyopia surgery and multifocal contact lenses or eyeglasses.
After age 40, the single pair of glasses or contact lenses you previously wore generally will no longer give you clear vision at all distances β or at least not without some compromises.
