Can You Prevent Cataracts

Well the answer is not clear. While cataract is a normal feature of old age, one possibly cannot escape it but then we can try anti-aging methods to prevent or delay the progression of cataracts. So how?  
  • 1. Stop smoking –Smoking releases free radicals, these can damage the cells of the lensand this can lead to early cataract. So never start or at least stop smoking. More the number of cigarettes more the chance of eye damage and early cataract.
 
  • 2. Protect eyes from harmful UV rays – UV rays can lead to cataract. Wear sunglasses with UV protective lenses on both sunny and not so sunny days as UV rays are present anyways.
 
    • 3. Avoid drinking –  Drinking alcohol can lead to cataract formation.
 
  • 4. Healthy diet – A diet rich in antioxidants can prevent or delay the development of cataract. So foods like dark green leafy vegetables or fish are useful. Consume adequate Vitamin C and E, lutein , omega 3 fatty acids as these are preventive.
 
  • 5. Control the blood sugar – High blood sugar can hasten the development of cataract.Blood sugar is converted to sorbitol and this accumulates in the lens leading to cataract.
 
  • 6. Regular eye examinations. . this is probably one of the most important.
