Cataract

Cataract is the world’s leading cause of blindness, with around 18 million people blind as a result. Although cataract is found all over the world, getting treatment for it is much more difficult in developing countries, and it affects children as well as adults. Many people are needlessly blind from cataract because they don’t know that it can be cured.
