summary

Cataract, a common disease in old age. Cataract is a kind of disease that occurs in the lens inside the eyeball. Many reasons can cause the metabolic disorder of the lens, leading to lens protein degeneration and turbidity, which is called cataract. Patients with cataracts are like having a film on their eyes that can't form an image on the retina, so they can't see clearly. However, cataract is the most common cause of blindness and visual disability. With the growth and aging of the population, the visual impairment caused by cataract will be more and more. Of course, if the vision is not significantly damaged before cataract surgery, can greatly reduce blindness and low vision patients.

posterior subcapsular cataract

Patients must know that the protein degeneration of lens cortex continues to develop, the fiber structure has been completely destroyed, the radial stripes disappear on the appearance, the lens is uniform white turbid, due to the continuous discharge of decomposition products and water, the anterior chamber can be deep, iris concussion, anterior capsule turbidity and wrinkles. This is the late symptom of cataract. I hope you will recover soon.

Patients must pay attention to the wedge-shaped opacity of the equatorial part of the lens gradually expands and continues to develop to the pupil area and deep layer. The whole lens appears milky white opacity, but the opacity is not uniform. After the original wedge-shaped opacity merges with each other, the radial stripes can still be clearly displayed. At this stage, the water content in the cortical layer increases and the lens expands and the anterior chamber becomes shallow, May occur secondary glaucoma, because the cortex is not yet completely turbid, iris projection exists, I wish you health.

Patients must know that the lens cortex is completely turbid, the appearance is diffuse milky white, the lens expansion completely subsides, the anterior chamber depth returns to normal, and the iris projection does not exist. This is developing towards the late stage of cataracts. The most effective method of cataract treatment is surgery, through surgical treatment, the vast majority of patients can successfully restore vision, I wish your family a speedy recovery.
