How We Support You

  • Clear Diagnosis — Confirming whether a cataract, or something else, is changing your vision.
  • Patient Monitoring — Many cataracts are simply tracked over time until treatment is genuinely warranted.
  • Surgical Co-Management — A referral to a trusted surgeon when the time comes, with Dr. Katz handling your before- and after-care.
  • Comfortable Vision Now — Updated glasses or contacts to keep you seeing well while a cataract is still mild.

Surgery Is Your Decision

A cataract diagnosis does not mean rushing into surgery. Dr. Katz helps you judge how much it is affecting your driving, reading, and work, so you choose the right moment with full understanding — never pressure.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does a cataract mean immediate surgery?

No. Early cataracts are commonly monitored for years. Surgery is considered only when it starts to interfere with your everyday life.

Yes. We make sure Spanish-speaking patients fully understand their cataract findings and choices, and the website can be read in Spanish.

Dr. Katz co-manages cataract patients, providing measurements beforehand and follow-up care afterward, working alongside your surgeon.
