Cataract

Cataracts are extremely common among Americans age 65 and older. Cataracts form when the natural lens of the eye becomes cloudy and cause blurred, dulled vision in the affected eye, which cannot be corrected by wearing stronger glasses or contact lenses. The Cornea Service at the University of Illinois Eye and Ear Infirmary sees patients with corneal infections, keratoconus, cataracts, blepharitis, dry eyes, eyelid and conjunctival problems, tumors of the front portion of the eye and many other disorders.
