What is combined forms of age-related cataract?

Combined forms of age-related cataract refer to the coexistence of multiple cataract types within the same eye, typically including nuclear sclerotic, cortical, and posterior subcapsular cataracts. This combination can complicate the clinical presentation and management of cataracts, as each type affects vision differently. The nuclear sclerotic cataract often leads to changes in lens density and color, while cortical cataracts cause visual distortions, and posterior subcapsular cataracts can impair near vision. Understanding these combined forms is crucial for effective diagnosis and treatment planning.
