What is a Cataract?

Cataract is a condition in which the lens of the eye becomes cloudy. In our eyes, the eye lens serves as a tool to focus the incoming light from the pupil to the retina.

Many think that cataract surgery is scary, and it takes a long time during surgery or even during recovery.
