MEDICAL ANIMATION TRANSCRIPT:

What is Cataract?
During normal vision, light rays pass unhindered through the lens as shown.
Rays are then focused on to the retina, light sensitive tissue, at the back of the eye.
Image is converted to electrical signals that are sent to the brain.
In cataracts the lens becomes cloudy or opaque.
This prevents light from passing clearly to the retina thus affecting vision.

The lens is made of mostly water & protein.
As we age, proteins in the lens lose transparency causing cataracts.

Other causes include
Exposure to sunlight or radiation
Smoking
Uncontrolled diabetes
Family history
Eye injury
Certain medications such as corticosteroids

Prevention Tips
Quit smoking
Control diabetes
Choose a healthy diet
Opt for regular eye exams
Limit alcohol
Wear sunglasses
