Cataracts: The Causes And Symptoms
Cataracts Are Not Painful

While cataracts may be visible to the naked eye, they are, thankfully, not usually a condition that causes pain. If blurry vision accompanies irritation, itching, redness, or aching in the affected eye(s), it could be a sign of another eye disorder and thus, should be evaluated by a profession and treated appropriately as soon as possible. Cataracts may cause the affected individual to blink more in an attempt to clear their vision. Hypermature cataracts occur when the lens becomes inflamed and completely white. This form of cataracts may cause patients some pain and thus, these cataracts will likely need to be removed.
