Assil Eye Institute - Cataract Awareness Month

Beverly Hills, CA, September 16, 2009 --(PR.com)-- Dr. Kerry Assil, Founder of Assil Eye Institute would like to remind Californians that although 20.5 million Americans age 40 and older have cataracts they don’t have to live with vision loss from cataracts.

A cataract is the clouding of the eye’s natural lens, which blocks the passage of light needed for clear vision.

“New techniques and technology Dr. Assil has developed over the past decade makes cataract surgery one of the most successful procedures available in restoring one’s vision and in many cases will reduce or eliminate an individual’s need for glasses afterwards. Today cataract removal is at an entirely new level, it’s performed as an outpatient procedure with no stitches, no shots, and under local anesthesia (eye drops) and is usually covered by most medical insurance, no should live with vision loss from cataracts,” said Angel Misenhelter, Practice Development Director.
