Cataracts are an eye condition where the lens of the eye becomes covered with cloudy areas. This impedes vision as the cloudy film prevents light from entering the eyes. While it’s the leading cause of blindness, cataracts may be treatable with surgery. This common eye condition mostly affects people over 40, but newborns can also suffer from cataracts due to complications during pregnancy. Diabetes, smoking, and hereditary are a few of the common causes for cataracts in people above the age of 40.

The best form of treatment is the practice of regular eye checks for people over 40.
