Over fifty percent of people over the age of 60, and quite a few younger than that, suffer from cataracts. Currently there is no medical treatment to reverse or prevent the development of cataracts. Once they form, the only way to see clearly again is to have them removed from within the eye.
In your parents' or grandparents' day, cataract surgery was considered risky, required a lengthy hospital stay and was usually postponed for as long as possible.Today, cataract surgery is performed on an outpatient basis and takes only a few minutes. It is now one of the most common and successful medical procedures performed.

Don’t buy from their optical store if you have a strong prescription and need high-index lenses. I did and the experience was horrible. They were incapable of adjusting my frames properly, even though my glasses worked when I first got them and my prescription is correct.
If you have a strong prescription, you know how frustrating it is when your glasses aren’t adjusted correctly and it messes up your vision. Please, don’t make the mistake of coming here and risk having this happen to you.
So here’s what happened. I bought my lenses from their store and when they arrived, I could see

Dr. David Gilbert of Diablo Valley Eye Medical Center is one of the best Eye Doctor who ever handled my situation! I was blind on my right eye and feeling so vulnerable when he removed my cataract so flawlessly in 15 minutes, that I can see more clearly than I ever did before! I so highly recommend him and his staff! He's a very capable and very humble Doctor!
