What is Cataract Eye?
A Cataract is clouding of the eye's natural lens, which in turn causes deterioration of vision. It is a natural process of aging of humans . Every person gets it, sooner or later as per his age, health and fitness . The natural lens in the eye is made mostly of water and protein. As the lens ages, the protein it is made of degenerates and becomes cloudy. This blocks some light from reaching the retina and interferes with one's vision to see properly . Cataract is not a disease.
