It’s challenging to live with cataracts, especially if your condition is advanced. When cataracts become large, they can cause blurred vision, interfere with daily living, and prevent you from leading an active and productive life. For example, with cataracts, many patients discover that they are unable to drive safely and engage in hobbies they love, like knitting and reading. When you find you’re making concessions to your lifestyle because of your deteriorating vision, it’s time to take action and consider cataract surgery.
Learn MoreThe retina is tissue at the back of the eye that receives light and sends signals to your brain, which translates those signals into recognizable images. At the centre of this tissue is the macula, which is responsible for providing clear, central vision. A number of serious conditions can affect the retina and threaten your eyesight – including macular degeneration, diabetic eye disease, retinal detachment and more. When you undergo treatment for one of these conditions at the Barossa Eye Clinic, you will be evaluated by our specialist, Dr De Wit.
