    Extractions: contents Print Email Summary : Designed to help you understand more about your eye condition, this guide has been written by our experienced eye health team. A congenital cataract is an opacity (cloudiness) in the lens of the eye that is present at, or develops shortly after, birth. The human lens is located behind the pupil and has an important function. It focuses rays of light into the retina to allow image formation. As the lens is able to change its shape, it can focus objects at different distances. Its cells are arranged so that it is transparent, like glass or water. When this arrangement is disturbed in any way, the transparency is lost and an opacity results. This results in blurring and blocking of the retinal image. In the case of a newborn infant, a cataract causes the immature visual system to be deprived of the stimulation needed for normal development. If left untreated, permanent visual loss may occur.

    Extractions: They are clouding of the lens of the eye caused by changes within the eye. They are not a film over the eye. With age, the lens becomes dense and firm. The proteins in the lens change, causing the white appearance that is noticeable when cataracts have progressed for some time. Cataracts may be on the edges of the lens for years without causing problems, but when they occur on or progress to the front of the lens, in line with your pupil, they cause the vision problems they are known for. What are the symptoms of cataracts? Like a camera lens, your eye's lens uses the light passing through it to focus on objects and produce clear images. When the lens becomes clouded by cataracts, vision becomes blurred. Also, night vision is poor and colors often appear dull or distorted. Many people become sensitive to bright light, especially reflected light, such as off water or snow. Almost always, one eye is affected more severely than the other. You may have double vision in the affected eye. You won't go completely blind from cataracts, because some light always gets through. But vision gets more and more blurry as cataracts progress. Do I need surgery?

    Extractions: Welcome to the Socioeconomic Data and Applications Center's ( SEDAC ) home page for the Stratospheric Ozone and Human Health Project. Stratospheric ozone protects the Earth's surface from high levels of biologically damaging ultraviolet (UV) radiation, which is known to be a significant risk factor for skin cancers, eye cataracts, and immune system suppression. Due to the current downward trends in total column ozone at mid- and high-latitudes, the expected increase in UV exposure as a result of this ozone loss may pose a significant health risk in the future. The purpose of this site is to provide data and resources in the areas of ultraviolet (UV) radiation, ozone, and human health impacts of UV exposure for use by researchers, educators, government officials, health providers, students, and the general public.

    Extractions: Cataracts are clouding of the lens portion of the eye. The result is much like smearing grease over the lens of a camera and impairs normal vision. Cataracts will affect most people if they live long enough. This disorder affects 60 percent of people older than 60 and occurs when the normally clear, aspirin-sized lens of the eye starts to become cloudy. impairing vision. Experts estimate that over 1.2 million Americans are diagnosed annually with cataracts that require treatment. As their is are growing numbers of elderly in the United States, the incidence of cataracts is increasing. These persons often want to continue driving cars, reading and traveling-activities for which clear sight is vital. Until recently, anyone who developed cataracts and needed surgery faced a procedure that involved pain and often less than satisfactory results. Until the late 1970s, doctors removed the cloudy lens in a surgical procedure that required a hospital stay of five to seven days. Afterward, the patient had to wear thick "Coke bottle" glasses or contact lenses neither of which could completely restore vision to its previous level.
