Summary:
Based on our results, we conclude that concise informedconsent information sheets at a second-grade reading level

Summary:
A cataract is a clouding of the lens in the eye that affects
vision. Most cataracts are related to aging so they are very
common in older people. It can occur in either or both eyes but
cannot spread from one eye to the other. As the person age,
some of the protein may clump together and start to cloud a
small area of the lens. This is a cataract. Overtime, the cataract
may grow larger and cloud more of the lens, making it harder
to see. Researchers suspect that there are several causes of
cataract, such as smoking and diabetes. Or, it may be that the
protein in the lens just changes from wear and tear it takes
over the eyes.
