👓👁️ Did you know? You don’t have to choose between eyeglasses and contact lenses — you can use both! Many of our patients enjoy the flexibility of wearing contacts for active days and glasses when they’re at home or reading.

Wondering how soon you can see clearly after cataract surgery? 👁️

Many patients notice improvement within just a few days, with vision often stabilizing in a few weeks. Mild discomfort, light sensitivity, or blurry vision is normal immediately after surgery, but it usually improves quickly.

Factors like age, general health, pre-existing eye conditions, and the type of lens used can affect recovery. Following post-op instructions and attending follow-ups ensures the best results. 💙

💡👀 Did you know?

If you have low vision (visual acuity of 20/70 or worse), standard glasses won’t fully correct your sight — but that doesn’t mean you’re out of options.

Low vision rehabilitation helps you manage everyday tasks like reading, writing, and navigating the world around you. At Heart of America Eye Care, our team provides low vision evaluations and tailored strategies to help you live with more ease and confidence. 💙
