Victims often face problems such as light glare and double vision, which cannot be recognized during routine eye tests.
Professor Harminder Dua, the President of the RCO, said: "We understand the financial pressures the NHS faces but cataract surgery is a highly cost effective treatment that improves sight loss and preserves patients’ ability to live independent lives. Using visual acuity thresholds to impose limits on cataract surgery is economically counterproductive when it leads to higher health and social care costs because patients’ vision deteriorates."
