Cataracts happen to everyone. It is the process through which the natural lens of your eye starts to harden and yellow (looks like when a toenail starts to harden and yellow). It starts to hinder your ability to see clearly and makes everything you look at have a dirty, yellowish appearance. It is caused by UV exposure over many years. It is easily remedied with a simple surgery where they break up and remove the old dirty lens and replace it with a clear artificial lens. Cataracts can not come back once the natural lens has been removed.
