Senile cataracts are a visual impairment brought about by the gradual and progressive thickening of the ocular lens which leads to the loss of lens’ transparency, slowly diminishing a person’s ability to see clearly. The term ‘senile’ is often used simply because this disease primarily affects aging people usually in the age group, 50 and above. Cataract is characterized by the opacification of the ocular lens which can be seen as a cloudy appearance of the lens, usually yellowish or brownish in color. A person affected with cataracts may also have noticeable brownish tinted vision. Other symptoms would include blurriness of vision glare sensitivity, problems with night vision, double vision or multiple images in one eye, accompanied by the need for frequent changes in eyeglass or contact lens prescription strength.
