Cataracts typically develop gradually and are usually not painful or associated with any eye redness or other symptoms unless they become extremely advanced.
adj., adj cataracÂ´tous. Causes and Symptoms. Some cataracts result from injuries to the eye, exposure to great heat or radiation, or inherited factors. The great majority, however, are âsenileâ cataracts, which are apparently a part of the aging process of the human body. Blurred and dimmed vision are often the first symptoms.
