What is Cataract?

A Cataract is clouding of the eye's natural lens, which in turn causes deterioration of vision. It is a natural process of aging. Every person gets it, sooner or later. 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.

Cataract is not a disease

That certain homeopathic, ayurvedic or allopathic medicines cannot prevent or cure cataract. There is a popular perception that once your vision gets impaired due to cataract, it cannot be restored.
