As age advances, our body degenerates and there are many changes that our bodily processes go through on a daily basis. Once you cross the mark of forty years, be prepared for various changes in your body and our eyes are no exception to this condition. One of the most common occurrences for people who have crossed the age of forty years is cataract, which affects the vision of our eyes. A cataract is a clouding of the normally transparent lens of the eye. The lens of the eye, which is located behind the pupil and the iris, is normally clear, without any obstructions.
It is the same simple phenomenon as in the case of a camera that captures images and stores them on the film of the camera. In our case, these images are formed on the lens and are transmitted to the brain. When a cataract is formed, the images transmitted or formed are not clearly focused onto the retina. The typical symptoms of a cataract that I faced were blurring of vision while I drove at night, too much glare from headlights and the sun, and at times distorted images too.
It was just an ordinary day when I realized that my vision has deteriorated and I can't see images clearly. On the first few instances, I thought it was the lens of my spectacles that had scratches or had finger-prints on them (due to pollution at times too), thus making my vision hazy and unclear. I even tried to helplessly replace my pair of reading glasses, but to no avail. Everything still remained the same cloudy and indistinct.
It was only when I contacted a specialist who, upon examination, suggested that I get the cataract operated upon. Having my initial apprehensions just like any other ordinary person, I tried to put it off, delay it till the maximum time that I could. But it was only when my vision started to deteriorate further that I realized how grave the problem would become if I did not act upon it in the nick of time.
Upon consulting many of my friends and relatives, I was convinced that a cataract operation was going to be a tough call, given how delicate and susceptible our eyes are. I was convinced that if at all I get my eyes operated, it better be the best surgeon in the world who I get them treated by! It was my vision at stake for the next 30 years of my life (I am very optimistic about my life expectancy!) From the very next day, I set off to find out from every single colleague mine and my spouse's too which was the best surgeon to go through the surgery of cataracts.
After many sessions with almost all of my social circle and the rave reviews on the internet, my obvious and undoubted choice had to be Dr. Michael Duplessie. He has been the leader in his field of cataract surgery, and for all and any eye surgery. He was the undisputed choice for an impeccable job in cataract surgeries.
I went through the surgery for both my eyes. The cataract in one of my eyes was harder than the other and needed special attention. I met Dr. Duplessie at least a couple of times before I settled in for the surgery; I wanted to be absolutely sure before I allowed any one to perform a surgery on the porthole-to-my-world.
I clarified, checked and double-checked all of my doubts with Dr. Duplessie and he was very patient, just like a cherub, with each of my concerns. He was the one who educated me about the occurrence of cataract. Cataracts are the leading cause of blindness among most adults in the United States, and they account for one out of every seven cases of blindness in people aged forty-five and older. It was after serious thought that I finally relented to the procedure, though I'll have to confess that my mind was then at peace, because I was in the hands of the world's best eye surgeon, literally!
And true enough, it has been over a year now that I went through the surgery for both my eyes. My eyes are hail and hearty, just like the rest of me! Dr. Michael Duplessie has, yet again, successfully operated upon my eyes and I can drive through at night too, without any vision impairments whatsoever.
Dr Duplessie is committed to excellence and the world turns to him for answers. I express my gratitude to Dr. Duplessie for being so skillfully talented and gifted, especially when it comes to correcting the vision of so many people around the world to perfection!
