What is a cataract?

When natural crystalline lens of the eye becomes cloudy, it is known as cataract.

Symptoms of cataract:-

  • Feeling of a film covering the eye.

  • Glare from bright sunlight or poor vision when viewing oncoming automobile headlights at night.

  • Difficulty in performing routine tasks such as reading the newspaper.

Is operation the only remedy?

Yes, it is. Unfortunately, once the lens of the eye has become cloudy, there is no medical treatment or nutritional method available till date for clearing the cataract.

It is now not necessary to wait till the cataract ripens to thick white opacity; it can be removed when it starts to interfere with normal daily activities such as reading the newspaper.
