June is Cataracts Awareness Month
Cataracts are when the lens, a small transparent disc inside your eye, develops cloudy patches.
Cataracts are very common in people over the age of 60. Treatment is available for the majority of cataract conditions.
Over time these patches usually become bigger causing blurry, misty vision and eventually blindness.
When we're young, our lenses are usually like clear glass, allowing us to see through them. As we get older, they start to become frosted, like bathroom glass, and begin to limit our vision.
