Research has not supported the theory that Alcoholism has "stages."
Stage 1
The three phases of alcoholism are early, middle, and end stage. In the early phase, individual may start to misuse alcohol intermittently. Middle stage is characterized by increased tolerance and dependence. End stage is marked by severe physical and psychological consequences, such as liver cirrhosis and cognitive impairment.
There are really no accepted stages of alcoholism.

About 2.5 to perhaps as many as 3% of the US population suffers from alcoholism.
To determine which stage of alcoholism Marc is in, we would need specific details about his drinking patterns, behaviors, and any physical or psychological symptoms he may be experiencing. Generally, alcoholism progresses through stages: early, middle, and late. In the early stage, individuals may start drinking more frequently and experience occasional blackouts. In the middle stage, tolerance increases, and social or legal issues may arise, while the late stage is characterized by severe physical dependence and health complications. If you provide more context about Marc's situation, I can give a more accurate assessment.
The last or late stage is when the alcoholic faces serious health issues, like liver and brain damage and heart disease.

I believe it's in Stage 3.
The most advanced stage of alcoholism is often referred to as late-stage alcoholism, characterized by severe physical and psychological dependence on alcohol, significant health complications, and substantial impairment in daily functioning. Recovery from this stage is particularly difficult due to the presence of withdrawal symptoms, potential co-occurring mental health disorders, and the damage caused to the liver and other organs. Treatment typically requires comprehensive medical intervention, a strong support system, and a long-term commitment to sobriety, making recovery a challenging process.
Stage 2 cataracts represent a slight nuclear opacity which includes swollen fibers that produce scattering 2-3 days after injection of selenite. Very little scattering is observed. Stage 3 cataracts represent diffuse cortical scattering that is difficult to see in anterior view 3-4 days after injection of selenite.
