Symptom #10: Need For More Light
In some cases of cataracts, affected individuals may attribute their increased need of more light to aging. As a person ages, we will need three to four times increase in light to perform out routine activities such as writing, sewing, home repairs, and knitting.
The aging eye requires brighter and more focused lights along with extra assistance such as reading glasses and bifocals. This need increases gradually and can occur in both increased age and cataract. In severe cases, they might even think that natural sunlight is not bright enough for them to perform their daily activities.
