Cataract & Lens Disorders: Causes, Symptoms & Advanced Treatment

Cataract and lens disorders refer to a group of eye conditions that affect the natural lens of the eye, leading to blurred vision, reduced clarity, or vision loss. The most common among these is cataract, where the eye’s lens becomes cloudy and blocks light from reaching the retina properly.
