This document discusses stages of senile cataract, lens induced glaucomas, and pre-operative assessment of cataract. It outlines the stages of cortical cataract and describes lens induced glaucomas including phacomorphic glaucoma, phacotopic glaucoma, and phacolytic glaucoma. It also lists the steps for pre-operative evaluation of a patient for cataract surgery, which includes assessing visual acuity, intraocular pressure, lens status, and performing tests like A-scan and K readings to determine IOL power for surgery.
A cataract is a dense, cloudy area that forms in the lens of the eye. A cataract begins when proteins in the eye form clumps that prevent the lens from sending clear images to the retina. The retina works by converting the light that comes through the lens into signals. It sends the signals to the optic nerve, which carries them to the brain.

Cataract refers to development of an opacity due in the lens or its capsule
Due to formation of opaque lens fibre
Due opacification of normally formed transparent lens fibres.
