Understanding Cataracts
Cataracts are a clouding of the eye's natural lens. Dr. Ahmed Sherif at Dar El Oyoun Hospital provides expert cataract diagnosis and treatment.

A cataract occurs when proteins in the eye's lens clump together, causing cloudiness. This blocks light from passing through clearly, resulting in blurry vision.
