The interest now surrounds whether these home remedies will manage, in some cases even potentially prevent, giving many hope in their continued search for alternative treatments.

Understanding Cataracts and Their Impact

Cataracts develop in the lens of the eye due to the clumping of proteins, resulting in the blurring of vision. The cause of this condition is mostly related to age, but in some cases, the causes of cataracts can also result from injuries, some medications, and health conditions. The symptoms of having cataracts are mostly blurred vision, night problems with night vision, and sensitivity to glare.
