If you have a cataract, the lens in your eye is cloudy. Things look blurry. You may feel like you are looking through a dirty window or frosted glass. Cataracts are common, especially in older people.
New glasses or sunglasses to cut down on glare might help for a while. But an operation is the only way to get rid of your cataract. Most people see much better and enjoy life more afterwards.
We've brought together the best research about cataracts and weighed up the evidence about how to treat them. You can use our information to talk to your doctor and decide which treatments are best for you.
