What is Cataract?
A cataract is a clouding of your eye’s natural lens. Color distortion and blurred vision occur when the lens becomes hazy. Cataracts are typically a normal part of aging. Although eye traumas, some systemic diseases, prior infections, ocular inflammation, long-term steroid use, and, in rare instances, congenital cataracts can also cause cataracts, newborns may be born with a congenital cataract.
What causes Cataract?
The most frequent cause is aging. Cataract develops when the proteins in the lens of the eye change and get denatured with age. Additional causes include metabolic disorders including diabetes and hypothyroidism, trauma, inflammation of the eye, congenital and developmental abnormalities (birth defects), certain medications like steroids, radiation, etc.
What are the common symptoms of Cataract?
Simple chores become challenging, if not impossible, to complete when you have cataracts. Different kinds of cataracts might lead to different kinds of issues.
