    Are you suffering vision loss due to cataracts? Cataracts, which eventually affects most aging individuals, are a medical condition in which the lens of the eye becomes progressively opaque or cloudy, resulting in blurred vision. Other symptoms may include glare or halos at night or sensitivity to light during the day.

    While there is no preventing cataracts, Eye M.D. can treat them with surgery, and it is one of the safest surgeries performed. Each surgery usually takes approximately 15 minutes.  Dr. Ruttig has performed over 2,000 cataract surgeries. Cataract surgery procedures take place at Twin Cities Hospital using the latest technology and equipment.

    Eyelid problems result from a variety of conditions such as allergies, diabetes, or stroke.  Aging is also a common cause of drooping eyelids. Often, eyelid surgery is covered by health insurance if the drooping lids are decreasing your field of vision. Special testing can easily be done in office usually during the same appointment to determine if you qualify.
