Cataracts
On our eyes, we have a natural, clear lens. This lens bends the light that comes in through our eyes to help us see. If that lens gets cloudy, it's called a 鈥渃ataract.鈥 You may think of cataracts as something that only affects adults. But kids can have cataracts too. They鈥檙e called 鈥渃ongenital cataracts鈥 when children are born with them. At 波色单双, our pediatric ophthalmologists (kids鈥 eye experts) can identify congenital cataracts early 鈥 sometimes even while your baby is still in the womb.
