What Are Cataracts?

A cataract is a common eye condition that causes the normally clear lens inside the eye to become cloudy over time. This makes vision less sharp and may affect daily activities such as reading, driving, or recognizing faces.

Cataracts usually develop gradually and are often linked with aging, but they can also occur earlier in life.

Common Causes of Cataracts

  • Natural aging
  • Diabetes
  • Long-term exposure to sunlight
  • Smoking
  • Eye injuries
  • Previous eye surgery
  • Long-term steroid medication use
  • Family history

Risk Factors

  • Age over 50
  • Medical conditions affecting eye health
  • Smoking and lifestyle factors
  • Excessive UV exposure

Who Can Be Affected?

  • Older adults
  • Patients with diabetes
  • Individuals with previous eye conditions
  • Patients seeking clearer vision and improved quality of life
