Cataract: A Case Study
Chithra C.
Abstract: Cataracts remain the primary cause of reversible blindness globally, characterized by the gradual clouding of the eye's lens, leading to compromised vision. This case study focuses on a 60-year-old patient who presented with symptoms including cloudy vision, diplopia (double vision), diminished night vision, and recurrent headaches. A thorough ophthalmic examination confirmed the presence of bilateral nuclear sclerotic cataracts, which were found to affect the patient's visual acuity and contrast sensitivity significantly. Visual acuity and contrast sensitivity. The case underscores the importance of early diagnosis and management of cataracts to prevent irreversible vision loss and improve patient outcomes. Appropriate treatment options will be discussed to illustrate the pathway from diagnosis to recovery, ultimately aiming to restore visual function and enhance the patient's quality of life.
