(1) senile cataract: mature or near mature cataract, visual acuity below 4.0 (0.1), good basic visual function (5-meter light perception, light location, color vision), or normal retinal function. (2) Concurrent cataract: the first treatment of primary eye disease or systemic diseases causing cataract, until inflammation control, stable condition, no surgical contraindications, surgery is considered. (3) Traumatic cataract: except for those with inflammation after trauma or those with intraocular foreign bodies removed soon, surgery should be performed as soon as possible. If the lens swells and protrudes into the anterior chamber or lens cortex causing allergic inflammation, surgery should be performed quickly. (4) Congenital cataract: if the eyes are full of cataract, the operation should be carried out as soon as possible to prevent amblyopia. For incomplete cataracts which still have a certain vision and do not affect children's activities, the operation can be extended beyond the age of 5-6 years. If the visual acuity is lower than 4.3 (0.2), which affects the education, the operation can be carried out in advance.

Vitamin C can weaken the damage of the lens caused by oxygen in the light, and has the effect of preventing the formation of senile cataract.
