Causes and Risk Factors:

Age: Discuss how aging is the primary risk factor for cataracts. Aging is the most common cause. This is due to normal eye changes that begin to happen after age 40. That is when normal proteins in the lens start to break down. This is what causes the lens to get cloudy. People over age 60 usually start to have some clouding of their lenses. However, vision problems may not happen until years later.

Medical conditions: Explore how certain medical conditions, such as diabetes or hypertension, can increase the risk.

Lifestyle factors: Address the impact of smoking, excessive alcohol consumption, poor nutrition, and prolonged exposure to sunlight.
