What is 6.Congenital cataract

A congenital cataract is a clouding of the lens of the eye that is present at birth. The lens of the eye is normally clear. It focuses light that comes into the eye onto the retina. It is also known as 'infantile cataract' if it develops in the first six months after birth. It can affect one eye, which is known as 'unilateral cataract' or both eyes, which is known as 'bilateral cataract'.
Most children with cataract in only one eye usually have good vision in the other. In case of children, permanent loss of vision (amblyopia) may occur, if prompt treatment is not provided.
