Abstract:
Cataract, an age-related eye disease, poses a significant ophthalmological public health challenge in both developed and developing nations. Tailoring treatment or surgery plans helps accurately categorise the cataract's developmental stage. Precise cataract grading helps in diagnosing cataracts and subsequently scheduling surgical intervention. In this project endeavour, a solution is presented to automate the cataract grading process utilizing slit lamp bio-microscope data sets acquired through smartphones. This innovation is particularly valuable for novice practitioners and non-specialist

Abstract:
Cataracts may be described as the opacity of crystalline lenses present in the eye. The translucent crystalline lens is a part of the human eye. It possesses all the physical characteristics of a biconvex lens. The eye’s lens performs similar functions to a camera’s lens. The lens directs light rays entering the eye to the retina’s sensitive layers. Any factor that increases the absorption of scattering of light by the lens reduces its transparency. The opacity of the lens or its capsule, whether developmental or acquired, is called a cataract. Cataracts vary in degree of density and site and

AbstractCataracts are mainly classified into three types: cortical cataracts, nuclear cataracts, and posterior subcapsular cataracts. In addition, retrodots and waterclefts are cataract subtypes that cause decreased visual function. To maintain an orderly and tightly packed arrangement to minimize light scattering, adhesion molecules such as connexins and aquaporin 0 (AQP0) are highly expressed in the lens. We hypothesized that some main and/or subcataract type(s) are correlated with adhesion molecule degradation. Lens samples were collected from cataract patients during cataract surgery, and

Abstract:
Background Cataracts are a leading cause of visual impairment and blindness globally, with a particularly high incidence in diabetic patients due to the complex interplay of metabolic dysregulation and hyperglycemia-induced oxidative stress. Diabetic cataract development is influenced by several modifiable risk factors including smoking and hypertension, which may exacerbate lens opacity through various biological mechanisms. This study aims to determine the effects of smoking and hypertension on cataract development in diabetic patients. Methods Conducted from December 2022 to November 2023,

Abstract:
We review clinical pearls in the evaluation and surgical management of white cataracts. Femtosecond laser-assisted cataract surgery is a newer technology that can aid in capsulorhexis creation, however the surgeon should be aware of the risk of incomplete capsulotomy creation in intumescent white cataracts. The surgeon should be fully prepared and anticipate challenges at every step of cataract surgery in these complex cases.

Cataract is one of the major causes of blindness in the world. Its early detection and treatment could greatly reduce the risk of deterioration and blindness. Instruments commonly used to detect cataracts are slit lamps and fundus cameras, which are highly expensive and require domain knowledge. Thus, the problem is that the lack of professional ophthalmologists could result in the delay of cataract detection, where medical treatment is inevitable. Therefore, this study aimed to design a convolutional neural network (CNN) with digital camera images (CNNDCI) system to detect cataracts efficient
