Cataract Care at Deevine Eye Care & Multispeciality Centre
About Cataract
Cataracts occur when the clear lens of the eye becomes cloudy. Those over the age of 50 are disproportionately affected by cataract, and it continues to be a leading cause of blindness worldwide.
Prevalence of Cataract in Indian Population
More than half of all Indian patients will have either developed a cataract or undergone cataract surgery by the time they are 60 years old. It’s possible for either eye to get a cataract. Spreading from one eye to the other is impossible.
The Formation of Cataract
The lens within the eye acts similarly to a camera lens by concentrating light onto the retina so that you may see clearly. It enables us to see clearly at all distances by focusing the eye. The lens of the human eye is composed mainly of protein and water. The structure of this protein is such that it effectively transmits light. Nevertheless, as we get older, the protein in our lenses can begin to clump together, clouding a tiny section of it. Cataracts are the result. It could swell and obscure your vision if left unchecked for too long.
