Did you know cataracts are the leading cause of blindness worldwide?
Cataracts don’t just affect older adults — they can begin to form as early as your 40s. While cataracts are a natural part of aging, early detection and proper care can prevent or slow their progression.
Here are some things to keep in mind:
- Cataracts are the most common cause of vision loss in people over age 40.
- Because cataracts often develop gradually, regular eye exams are crucial for early diagnosis.
- Healthy habits such as wearing sunglasses, eating a healthy diet, and not smoking all play a role in preventing cataracts.
