What happens during the disease - other senile cataract
Senile cataracts are caused by the natural aging process of the eye lens. as we age, the proteins within the lens become increasingly damaged and clump together, creating a cloudy appearance that blocks light from reaching the retina, resulting in blurred vision. this damage is also compounded by oxidative stress and inflammation, which further contributes to the breakdown of the lens proteins.
