Cataract
is a condition characterized by clouding in the natural lens of the eye. The cause is usually unknown but can result from exposure to ultraviolet light, injury, heredity, disease and advancing age. Some medical treatments include surgical replacement of the natural lens with an artificial lens. Cataracts are usually treated on an out-patient basis.
