What is a cataract?
Cataract is a clouding of the transparent lens of the eye, which could be compared to a foggy window, causing a decrease in visual acuity to its complete loss.
The only way to detect cataracts in time is regular check-ups with an eye doctor, especially for people over the age of 45. Only an eye doctor can determine what is the cause of vision loss - cataract or some other disease, as well as determine the need for cataract surgery.
